Is the possibility of having a short-lived partnership/marriage high or low?
Diminished emotional connection. You just don’t talk any more… let alone read each other’s minds like you did early in your relationship. ‘The way they were’ has become a reality of ‘where did the love go’ – you know, those feelings that you had when you first met, fell in love, and committed to each other. And sex. If you want it, she doesn’t. If he wants it, you don’t. One lusts after the other – but it isn’t returned.
Are they daydreams or nightmares?
“If we could only have a fulfilling relationship, then…” Wondering what that looks like? “Maybe we should just give up and get a divorce.” Infidelity. Now what? Finding a path to rebuild trust is not easy. Most often it can’t be found without a guide.
Get back to joy!
Constantly thinking about the challenges in your current relationship instead of having those feelings of joy you once experienced is a good reason to think about therapy. Maybe the lack of effective communication, emotional and physical intimacy, differences in values, religion, parenting, trust, recent or past infidelity, or other marital challenges are always on your mind – anywhere you are from work to the school play; from doing lawn work to grocery shopping. Therapy can help ease those anxious thoughts. Therapy is an intimate, delicate and personal service that will help identify and restore this important relationship.
