The Walking on Eggshells Questionnaire

o     Do you often feel if you say anything, it will start an argument?

o    Do you often feel afraid to talk about anything meaningful because your spouse will disagree?

o    Do you often argue about money, like how the checking account is managed, who manages it, even where it is kept?

o    Do you often get nervous the kids will hear you arguing?

o    Do you often feel your spouse does not listen to what you have to say, even if it is important to you?

o    Do you often feel if you take one wrong step, it will cause an explosion in your relationship?

o    Do you find you can’t even agree on small things, like where to have dinner?

o    Do you feel the attraction is gone and you are headed in different directions, despite having once been on the same page?

o    Do you have little or no intimate relationship at all? Do you fight about it instead? Do you sleep in different rooms?

o    Do you feel you cannot communicate effectively with your spouse, like you are disconnected and  keeping more and more inside?

o    Do you feel suspicious about the time your spouse spends away from you, even if you feel angry when you are together? 

If you checked 4 or more questions, it is time to get help for your relationship. I understand what you are going through, and you don’t have to go through it alone.
