– Jennifer & Dexter, Relate Relationship Counselling Clients

Jennifer and Dexter have been together for five years. They met when they were both going out a lot and were juggling work, friends, hobbies and travelling to see family at weekends. When they moved in together they both felt the relationship changed. Jennifer realized that her standards of housekeeping were way above Dexter’s but she didn’t want to moan at him and change the laid-back dynamic they had enjoyed. Dexter was also feeling the strain since he wanted more commitment and was considering getting engaged but every time he brought it up, Jennifer told him that she didn’t believe in marriage as her parents divorced when she was young
