Eventually this won't be an fml, it seems like you both want to stay together so you're already on the right track!

Jeeez.. Why bother if you start out with the attitude that getting counseling to resolve whatever is troubeling in your relationship is a FML?.. You could spare the expences and get a good divorse lawyer instead.. Don't look at it like that and be thankfull that you and your partner are willing to go all out to make it work.. Good luck OP..

Look at it as a step foward OP :) Hopefully everything will work out. At least you're both trying!

I fail to see the FML here. On the bright side, agreeing to marriage counseling sounds like progress being made. Good luck to you and your husband op; I hope it works out.

At least you know he wants to try and work on your marriage and he isn't just giving up.

I don't see how this is an fml. I mean your marriage may not be great, but you are both in agreement that you want to continue married and get help to solve the issues that you may have. This is a good thing. This means you both still love each other and are putting effort in the relationship. Not many can say this.

Well at least you're off to a good start!

Better than agreeing on a divorce. Counseling can help alleviate a lot of animosity. Give it a try.

That's a good start

At least neither of you are suggesting divorce... you're both wanting to try and fix your marriage. It sucks that things aren't going great right now but the fact that you both want to make the effort to change that for the better is great... hope it works out for you.
