Don’t stop trying Some relationships get stuck in peaceful coexistence and the couple slowly drifts apart as each seeks to do what interests them. On the surface this lack of involvement seems to be marital bliss. Unfortunately the truth is that a lack of communication is undermining the relationship. There is a depressing distance developing between the couple and the longer it goes on the harder it will be to reach out and make the effort to bridge the developing gap. While it is true that no one person can meet all our needs and we all need outside relationships; the fact is that marriage is different. Marriage requires daily effort to touch base with each other. Your spouse is supposed to be your best friend so go ahead and share your thoughts, feelings, triumphs and failures of the day with them every day. They are more than likely just waiting for the chance to also share their day with you. So sit down next to your spouse, take their hand, smile and share. You will be surprised how easy it is and how good you will feel afterwards. Best of all your relationship back accounts will have more deposits in them. Your worries will be cut in half and your joys multiplied.
