My courtship and wedding was like a fairytale. Then real life problems set in, like he was extremely stressed and angry about his job and took it out on me by neglect.

My son, who is anxious about dating and relationships, asked if there’s always going to be some huge problem between any two people in a relationship. It breaks my heart that he is so scared. I think I do know some people that have no major problem, but mostly everyone I know does.
