How do married couples recover from a huge financial crisis? We are going through one and it has caused cracks in our marriage. We seem like 2 strangers living in one house now. I tried talking to him but he just kept quiet.

Communication is key. Remind yourself that you are one team, one family unit. Tell him that you miss him and how you are feeling. Tell him that you love him despite this mess. Tell him that you will love him no matter what and that you are here to shoulder this crisis with him. You should never fear being honest with your spouse and you should never have ego with your spouse. That's the quickest path to disaster!

...If you both have a strong foundation of faith & trust in your relationship you don't have to worry. Breathe in then breathe out! Then: do a 1 on 1 talk to set all status,expectations and plans ahead. Listen to what he has to say while you open up your suggestions too. Make sure that in the end, both your plans are aligned. If things fail, keep trying and don't ever blame anyone...remember, trust. :)

It's best to discuss your financial crisis openly and check the situation together, as opposed to blaming each other. Try to come up with a system where both of you suggest a solution to the problem. These could be different solutions and may need a consensus. The key is to do this activity together. If it does not work then discuss this problem with your CA and work on the solutions together.

Not sure how bad the financial crisis is but I sort of went through before. My hubby job hopped a lot in that year and lost quite an amount of income. As long as willing to thrift and adapt to new lifetyle, dont overspend, it should be okay. Don't let money cause you to have communication breakdowns, it's not worth it...

There couldn't possibly be any progress in your relationship both financially and personally unless you two begin to talk openly about things. One shutting the other out is not only unhealthy but also disrespectful. Get to the root of the problem and try to address that first before anything else.

In a marriage, communication is really important. It will be really hard to resolve any problems that involves the family if both of you can't communicate. Don't give up in trying to fix this. If he isn't cooperating with you in resolving it together, try couple counselling.

Keep talking to him. You both are obviously stressed about your financial situation right now. Do try to talk about other things instead of just money and finances. Even when talking about your finances, don't shout or argue. Try to stay as positive as possible! Good luck!

I think that you should communicate with your husband and vice versa. There's nothing wrong with talking things out and trying to work out a solution together. Being in this crisis alone is bad enough, but having the company of your partner would make it better

Make time to remind yourselves of the good times. When things get rough, it's easy to be consumed by the bad things happening. Both of you likely need to be reminded of better times to help you hunker down together as a team while the clouds dissipate.
