You don’t want your parents’ marriage, or maybe you do. Either way, what you have now isn’t working. You feel scared about the future. A deep pit in your stomach daily reminds you that things have to change. Communicating used to be so easy. You were always on the same wavelength, could finish each other’s sentences, and almost always agreed on the ‘big things’ in life. Now you notice your partner goes nuclear every time you disagree about finances. It starts off ok, but then it escalates, and BOOM. Now you wonder if you have different priorities and different values when it comes to certain things, finances being just one of them.
Disagreements happen. Feeling abandoned or rejected becomes a problem. You both co-created this ‘dance’ so no bad guy here. We look to rebuild the emotional connection between the two of you by going beneath the content of your arguments to the feelings that are set off. Being vulnerable isn’t easy, but it breeds independence because you feel safe.
Marriage is work. But it’s work that bonds you together, not pushes you apart. Let me help you rebuild a sense of safety and connection we all want, and so few seem to find. I’ve been where you are. I understand feeling lost with the person supposed to ‘get you.’ Don’t give up hope. Change the music to the dance. Reach out now. Time is ticking.
