You hit the Pause Button on your marriage. I get it. You didn’t realize you were doing it, and didn’t know it was a problem. You just thought you were dealing with life — the kids, a career, activities… life.
But while you didn’t know it was a problem, it is. In fact, it is the big reason that marriages get into trouble. Yes, there are lots of symptoms of the problem. The underlying problem, though, is disconnection… from hitting the Pause.
Relationships don’t go into suspended animation, just awaiting re-animation. Nope, they are either growing or receding. And a paused relationship is receding.
Then, suddenly, you realize there is a problem. It was brewing for awhile. But since you were disconnected, you missed the signs. Until it was a crisis.
And then, you go from Pause Button to Panic Button.
Now, you have to deal with both the paused marriage and the panic problem. You have to find a way to heal the disconnection AND deal with the crisis.
How do you do it?
We talk about it on this week’s episode of the Save The Marriage Podcast. You can listen below.
