Those who marry have great faith in love…<\/strong><\/p>\n

…is full of hope.
…senses the deeper meaning of having found this particular person.
…believes in his capacity for relationships.<\/p>\n

As newlyweds, we naturally assume that we will have a lasting, loving, and stable relationship, indeed \u2013 that we will stay with our partner \u201cuntil death do us part\u201d (even if that always sounds a bit martial… \ud83d\ude05. But: \u201c bond for life<\/strong> \u201d indeed…).<\/p>\n

Most couples on their wedding day are full of confidence<\/strong> that they will never be among the countless divorced couples. They treat each other with kindness<\/strong> , have a great deal of understanding<\/strong> for one another, and are convinced that they can rely on each other<\/strong> for the rest of their lives .<\/p>\n

And if there should be any major challenges? Then, of course, they will remain in close emotional contact and work together to find fair solutions.<\/p>\n

But then what? – The complexities of everyday life regularly put all relationships to the test. Between organizing work, household chores, finances, leisure time, family ties, raising children, etc., good intentions are increasingly forgotten.<\/p>\n

It’s not uncommon for serious crises to erupt at some point. Goodwill and respect diminish, while irritation and dissatisfaction increase.<\/strong> Both partners become more sensitive. Trifles lead to arguments<\/strong> . Interest in the other person dwindles, and the feeling of connection and security fades. Neither feels seen, valued, or loved anymore.<\/strong> Both blame the other. The great ” re-education program<\/strong> ” has long since begun: Each wants the other to be different.<\/p>\n

Eternal contentment, happiness, and love? – Not a chance!<\/p>\n

When being together brings more frustration than joy, the thought of separation<\/em> and divorce<\/em> (understandably!) eventually arises for one or both partners … Or (fortunately!) first, marriage therapy<\/em> and couples counseling<\/em> .<\/p>\n

What about you? Are you currently at such a point?<\/strong><\/p>\n
