You may not even recognize how you got here, but you feel where you are. The criticisms from your spouse sting and linger. The compliments that were once so validating and that made you feel so appreciated have disappeared. Going to work and busying yourself outside the home become welcome distractions.
And going home, especially if your spouse is there, is the loneliest part of the day.
This is the point in marriage where you may ask yourself, “How does an unhappy marriage affect you? Am I reading my feelings correctly? Is this how I’m going to feel for the rest of my life?”
Perhaps you don’t even share some key values anymore. Perhaps sex is actually a distancing, emotionally painful experience. Perhaps you bicker about petty subjects as a way of avoiding deeper issues (and deeper intimacy).
However this marriage-of-one-or-none is playing out, you know only that you don’t recognize this life to which you are sworn. You may even wonder if you made a huge mistake uttering those two life-sentencing words on your wedding day.
The only thing that could make you feel worse is your suspicion that your spouse might feel the same way. And if both of you feel such disconnect, the time has come to learn how to save your marriage.
