When Marriage Gets Hard..
Are you in a difficult season in your marriage?
Let's be honest, married life isn't always sunshine and rainbows. We love to present a great front and smile our way through, but the truth is sometimes marriage just gets really hard. Sometimes, you look across the dinner table and wonder if that person putting ketchup on their eggs is your soulmate. Many healthy couples at some point had these thoughts. One of the biggest misconceptions is that if you argue, you have a bad marriage and that is a lie. But before you resign yourself to a lifetime of cold coffee and eggs Florentine disagreements, hear us out.
Marriage is a beautiful journey, but it's also a wild ride. Life throws curveballs, people change (sometimes for the better, sometimes for the...well, interesting!), and sometimes, even the strongest connections need a little TLC. One of the easiest things you can do is to engage in forgiveness. Holding on to past hurts will only hinder forward movement. What are you holding onto that you need to forgive? It can be within yourself or your partner. It may be a series of events and one of the things we work through is the strong voice that says, “He/She doesn’t deserve my forgiveness, they hurt me. They need to show me before I forgive them.” Outside of physical abuse, most of the issues in marriage can be worked out if given the correct tools.
Married couples on the verge of giving up have believed that they know everything there is to save their marriage and that is just not the case. There are MANY resources and tools you can use to help your relationship thrive. Outside of popular belief, everything ISN’T fixed by Googling it.
Here's the thing: You don't have to go it alone! If you feel like your marriage is stuck in a traffic jam, or if communication has devolved into grunts and emoji texts, consider contacting a professional counselor.
Why wait? Don't let small issues snowball into bigger problems. Here are a few signs that scheduling an appointment could be a game-changer for your marriage:
Constant bickering (Remember that playful banter from the early days? Yeah, this ain't it.)
Feeling emotionally distant (Like you're roommates, not soulmates.)
The "D" word has started creeping into conversations (Not the good kind of "D" - we're talking about Divorce!)
You can't remember the last time you truly connected (Remember that weekend getaway you used to dream about? Maybe it's time for a different kind of escape!)
We get it. Their team is here to listen without judgment and provide effective tools and strategies to help you navigate the tough stuff and rediscover the joy in your relationship. Think of it as an investment in your forever.
