The Couple Connection

The Couple Connection is an interactive, self-help site providing resources and practical tools that will enable you to improve your relationship

The site is broken into three sections:

  • Check it Out – explores common relationship issues like money and sex
  • Talk it Out – the relationship forum section
  • Work it Out – helping you make plans and move forward in your relationship.

We’ve picked a few articles we think may interest you, but there are plenty more on this website, so if you are in a relationship take some time out to check/talk/work it out.
