Marriage Apps or tools

7 comments

1. Marriage 365 has a membership with a lot of helpful webcasts. They are also active on Facebook and Instagram.

2. Lasting app was pretty cool. We used it for a few months because it got old quickly but it helped point out a few things here and there. Had a better understanding in certain aspects.
   It’s not life changing in any means.

4. https://beyondbitchy.com/podcast/page/12/ this is very very helpful for just getting along with people in general.

   And there’s a very good relationship skills series on youtube. https://youtu.be/csPmD6Vf0QQ

5. Check out this sub’s wiki which has dozens of website tools and mobile apps, along with tons of other resources such as articles, books and videos sorted by topic.

   Since I volunteer to help run this sub and out of curiosity, I bought a year of the Lasting app (https://www.getlasting.com/) and despite knowing each other for over 4 decades, my wife and I had some interesting and helpful discussions. We started on the one week trial and they sent me a discount if I’d sign up for a year so I took it.

   The app has a bazillion different topics that you pick from to work together on. And then each of you answer questions separately on your own time and then you come back and talk about them, guided with clinically based content from experts. They’re careful to say that it doesn’t replace human counseling, but it’s impressive how much they’ve packed in there. It’s a little bit confusing on the user experience but you can figure it out. They also do a lot of free and charged live seminars that they’ll email you about.

7. The Intimately Us app. It addresses increasing all forms of intimacy (not only sex but it’s included).

   I haven’t tried it because we’ve been doing great in this particular area the past several years. But I’ve heard some couples say good things about it. I think it would have been great to have during the middle 10 years of our marriage. It’s in the utility belt if I ever feel us slipping in these areas.
