Sex is not for a happy marriage. People have sex every day with people who hate.
Anyone can benefit from their marriage. We all have relationships. We all know the ups and downs of a relationship.
Priest live with other priests. They have to make the same sacrifices that people living with their spouses.
Fr Albert Cutie has a bestselling book on marriage. You can check it. "Real Life Real Love - 7 Paths to a lasting relationship stronger."
It has a radio program and is very popular.

Read 1 Corinthians 7:7-9. Paul was celibate, however, gives advice about behavior in marriage in several parts of his writings. If you think a celibate man can not give advice about how valid a marriage should be structured, then this would mean that I do not think Paul's advice is valid, which means that you are not Christian, but an apostate and heretic. So now accept the possibility of unmarried people (as priests in the Church) to give valid advice on marriage?

What you can do to a gynecologist for women if a man is? What good can a suicide counselor if you have not committed suicide? What does a psychiatrist to offer a mental patient if not mentally ill? Ohhh … you say that these professionals are highly trained to offer advice and guidance, and know the facts, in addition to the popular myths. Good - So you know how a priest can give premarital counseling and education. You could also ask why God inspired Paul, a minister of the Gospel in fact, provide most of the biblical teaching on marriage. One might wonder how qualified pastors to provide marriage counseling, as they have one of the highest divorce rates, assessed by the profession.

If they are both teaching the same book, the message is the same regardless of whether they are married or not.
