At the University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Services, couples are taking steps to try and bolster healthy unions. The two day, six hour course titled "Before You Tie The Knot" looks to raise awareness of why some marriages last and some don't. The research-based program applies to all people of all backgrounds, which has been a problem in the past with other programs that are religion-based. What are your feelings on this? We'd like to know if you and your spouse have ever participated in something like this. Did it work? Do you wish you had participated? Discuss this and more on the message board here in our "Just Married" section.
