Every marriage has it's cracks. Sometimes however these begin the shatter the relationship and it can take a concerted effort to get your love back.
If you are reading this blog then you are no doubt serious about rekindling your relationship. However, sometimes, for all our efforts, we can be working against our aim rather than towards it.
Don't Score an 'Own Goal'
There are times when your anxiety to improve things could actually be having the opposite affect and driving your spouse away.
As you crank up your efforts to get closer, their natural reaction might be to take a step back. Take time to think about how you might inadvertently be piling on the pressure by:
- calling them throughout the day,
- constantly sending them e-mails and text messages,
- trying to make them feel sorry for you.
These behaviors backfire and whilst actioned out of concern or by a need to feel closer, they are likely to feel a little overpowering to the recipient.
Have a think about the amount of contact you have with your partner. Could it be a little too intense? Is it at a level that they are comfortable with?
Today's blog tip is to take time to reflect up on the way that you try to get close to your spouse. Could you be overdoing it and doing more harm than good?
