There’s a quiet shift happening in American marriages, and it’s not showing up in wedding photos or anniversary posts. It’s happening behind closed doors,...
"I stood outside last night, with one daughter curled up under each arm sobbing, it struck me. They waved goodbye, trying hard to smile as tears ran down their cheeks."
"You have a hard time getting going in the morning, yet you can’t fall asleep at night because your mind just. won’t. stop. You do your best to appear OK, and feel neglected when everyone then assumes you’re OK. Because anxiety is, often, a silent struggle. It’s often used flippantly, as though it’s just a synonym for being worried. But it’s real. And it sucks. It sucks so much, and speaking of, it sucks the life right out of you."
I write as a man who loves his wife and wants to know her better. If you’ve ever thought, “I just can’t figure her out” maybe this post can be a launching pad to deeper conversations with your spouse.
"Maybe it would have been easier if it was a conscious decision. Wake up one morning, pour a cup of coffee and tell your husband that you are never having sex again. But it’s not that easy, is it?"
