Married and Walking on Eggshells?
Navigating Marriage: Gaslighting & Communication (Riverside Video- 3 minutes)
Do you find yourself walking on eggshells with your spouse, way too often?
Watch the 3-minute video.
Great rewards come to those that take the time to figure it out!! So many people get stuck in the emotion and frustration of their marriage, forgetting to analyze and identify, why they're having so much trouble.
Marriage is made up of two different personalities that either work well together or constantly butt heads. Add to that upbringing. You may differ on how to spend money, discipline kids, who does the chores, what constitutes spending quality time together means, and so... much more!
Do you both respect one another and what's the definition of a great marriage?
Have you seen one?
If you're finding more arguments than you'd like, I'd suggest keeping a diary and writing down how you were feeling before the argument started, the mood of your spouse and what started the argument. That way you can go handle it differently next time. This might be something you both should talk about when you're in a good mood. If you keep doing the same thing, you will keep getting the same results!
The book "Empowered to Love" by Focus on the Family is excellent. Read the book, highlight important parts, then go back and read it again, implementing each stage of what you learn. I plan on doing several podcasts on this book this year.
Have... the determination to move past what divides you!
