Of all of our married friends we're the only ones who are still together and haven't had extreme counseling because of serious issues. I'm not bragging. I'm heartbroken.
There have been two cases where DH acted quickly to stop us from having issues. One: when I stayed in bed four days DH called my doc and dragged me in that day so I could get meds, get help, and get better. Two: we went on a two-night marriage counseling retreat. Our pastor recommended it and the church paid. We gained so much insight into how to better communicate our feelings and expectations. I hated him, at that point, and it was mostly the depression talking. Luckily I hadn't acted on it in any way.
secrets to marriage ? you have to want it. you have to forgive easily. there are a ton. its not always about love, sex. I dont see you ever being divorced .
We're in it to win it!
