I am afraid that my marriage is falling apart…
Every conversation turns into a fight.
We cannot communicate anymore.
What starts as a civil conversation ends in an argument. It seems we argue about everything, but nothing is ever resolved. It’s the same arguments over and over and nothing changes.
I can’t take the fighting anymore. Sometimes I don’t even know why we are arguing or what we are arguing about. Things are said we can’t take back.
We’re just angry at each other all the time.
We are not intimate anymore.
I have lost interest in being intimate with my partner. I do not feel connected anymore, so why would I want to have sex with him?
I am worried that we will never have a normal sex life again. My partner has changed and seems to have no interest in me sexually.
It’s just such a chore.
Can my marriage survive after an affair?
How could I ever trust my partner again?
What is wrong with me that made my partner cheat? Am I enough?
I don’t think I can move on. I want to… no I don’t… I just don’t know.
My life as I knew it is upside down. I feel so betrayed. The pain and hurt is deep.
How do I ever forgive for being so hurt? Moving past the sadness, bitterness, hurt, and betrayal seems impossible; but there is a part of me that wants to save my marriage.
Past relationships aren’t really in the past.
I have baggage from past relationships, or maybe my childhood, that I brought into my current relationship. I thought I had left the past in the past, but the hurt is still there.
Things in my childhood taught me early on to not trust others. Take care of myself and survive. Don’t get close to anyone because they will hurt you. I’m an adult now and cannot let go of my childhood beliefs.
I was betrayed in a past relationship. How can I ever trust anyone again? It seems like everyone cheats, and nobody can be trusted. I want to trust my partner, but I don’t know how.
Let’s face it… marriage takes work.
At Journey to New Beginnings, we can help with communication, loss of intimacy, love after infidelity, and more.
Whether you need to understand your partner again or add some sizzle back to your marriage, we are here for you.
Every couple has disagreements, but your disagreements do not have to be catastrophic. It is possible to be respectful of each other even when you have completely different opinions.
Sex and intimacy contribute to a successful relationship; they can make us feel more connected and desired. Some people feel that “bedroom matters” should be left in the bedroom; but we know that if we do not talk about our problems, we can never find solutions.
Relearning how to be vulnerable, connected…
… and spark interest in your partner can take place in the safety of a therapy session.
Building trust and working toward forgiveness are main goals when trying to save a marriage after infidelity. These goals may seem impossible to obtain on your own, but an experienced marriage counselor can guide you down a path to recommitment.
Whether an affair is emotional or physical, healing can occur; and we can help.
Through counseling, you can learn to trust again. You and your partner will learn what can strengthen trust in a marriage.
Did you ever say that you would never be like your parents? Of course, you did! So even if you tried your best to not be cold like your dad or invalidating like your mom, these characteristics can be ingrained in us, because that is what we learned.
We’re here and ready to help you put in the work for your marriage.
Going to marriage counseling can be intimidating, but we know that your marriage is too important not to try.
Learn better ways to talk to your partner, bring back intimacy, and finally let go of the baggage in your relationship.
