When Conflicts Become The Norm . . . there is another way to reconnect
Right now, your situation may feel like a marriage in crisis with the two of you so far apart and disconnected to ever find your way back to each other ever again. You may feel intense hurt and anger as if there is just too much damage done to try to save your marriage. One of you may still have a glimmer of hope and want to try to turn things around. Your spouse may feel divorce is the only answer. Before you and your spouse close the door forever, you owe it to yourselves and your children to give saving this marriage one more try. The best feeling you could have is the knowledge that you tried everything before things get worse. Yes, things can get even worse than they are now.
Some of the greatest struggles in life can come within the context of our marriage. It is the closest relationship we ever have with someone else. We know each other’s secrets and how to push each other’s buttons. We experience the greatest highs and lows of life within our relationship as a couple because nowhere else do we hold our hearts out so openly and feel emotions so deeply. Often, this results in great hurts and misunderstandings. Rest assured, it is never too late to find healing in your relationship.
Marriages in crisis can turn around through the consistent process of changes. Couples are guided to make the right changes while working together to determine the marital core issues, examine existing patterns, reconnect, and create something brand new where both of you thrive. Sometimes couples choose to work on one or two specific problem areas that they would like to resolve, and sometimes they want to change the entire atmosphere of their marriage. Often there are long-standing issues that are causing current problems which is why it is good to go deeper into what you feel is causing an impasse.
You and your spouse are not alone. All marriages experience difficulty. No one’s marriage is quite like your and yet there are similarities. Marriage crisis can come in many forms from a never-ending power struggle to an affair. A marriage crisis is the right time to seek help. You are not alone. I know how to help you through this.
