Did you wake up today and feel like you are reliving yesterday in your marriage? Everyday the same thing happens ending in argument and anger just to wake up and do it all over again. What you are going through with your spouse is a repetitive pattern of destructive behavior that will destroy your marriage and end in separation and divorce if the patterns are not changed.
Sometimes our jobs, family and finances cause a tear to form in our intimacy with our spouse. As newlyweds we have nothing but time for one another and we find ways to please our partner despite the personal cost to ourselves. In time this becomes less and less often until you are passing each other around your daily routines as strangers. Unable to even recognize who it is you have become, ‘Repetitive Pattern Syndrome’ has taken over each partner and until the patterns are broken and replaced with more intimate patterns, your marriage is headed for divorce.
When our brain receives information from certain behaviors toward a given situation repeatedly, it sees it as natural and even irreversible. It does not make a difference between negative or possible. It is important to put an end to these repeated patterns of reaction, sooner than later. While marriages can be saved despite their situations, the sooner attitudes and characters can be changed, the easier it will be to keep your marriage together.
Getting your spouse to understand, as well as yourself, that your marriage is in trouble is your first step to marital bliss. You should both take responsibility for your part in the relationships sorrow. Spend time with one another, talking and listening to what each have to say. Getting help to know what actions to take and when to take them should be one of your first goals.
Finally, both you and your spouse need to realize that to have a healthy and happy marriage it must be nurtured without cease. Keep the lines of communication open and listen to each other. Always make sure that you never go to bed angry. Discuss your issues as they come up so that you do not fall back into repeating what you are trying to correct.
