Manage episode 399537547 series 2795370
Do you remember that vibrant sense of friendship you had early on in your relationship — the strong connection that created an irresistible longing just to be with each other?
Isn't it crazy how the packed schedules, complex relationships, and differences of perspective, take you from irresistible to irritated in no time flat! It might leave you feeling more like business partners or roommates these days. Or worse yet, battling foes rather than friends.
When real life happens, it can rob you of the closeness you once experienced and leave you feeling disconnected or dissatisfied — especially when your deepest needs aren't being met.
In this episode, we'll share some of our journey and what it took to revive our friendship and save our marriage — even when we didn't like each other very much.
The truth is, we all need to experience genuine friendship with our partner — it's a vital aspect of any relationship.
