He said, She said

We were out with friends last night and listening to the spill over from couple’s therapy and I wondered to myself does couple’s therapy ever really work? There is always someone trying to change the dynamic and someone who is resistant – that’s the push pull of most couples I’ve observed my entire life. So having an outsider say to someone – you know he really is right, or you know you really oughta ____, seems to me to be futile exercise.

Sometimes people know what they need to do to get along but they simply don’t do it because of reasons too myriad to categorize here.
