YOU BELIEVE YOUR ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIP SHOULD HAVE THE SAME PRESTIGE AND SUCCESS AS YOUR CAREER.
Hard work doesn’t just apply to the way you earn your living, it applies to the entire lifestyle you’ve built. And, while your relationship is struggling right now, it’s not something that can’t get better with a bit of dedication and effort. As a couples counselor, I can help.
When your relationship was new, you never could have imagined wanting space, fighting, or outright disrespecting each other. You were intensely in love and your world revolved around your togetherness. You still have strong feelings and a strong connection, but you never pictured the distance that would develop as your relationship grew. You never imagined that you would sit on separate couches or spend time in separate rooms avoiding each other, or that your intimacy would all but dry up.
You had a feeling your careers, the kids, and other life pressures might impact your relationship. You anticipated high-stress deadlines and lonely dinners for one. You knew there would be times both of you would have to make a choice between your livelihood and your loved one. And, you prepared yourself and your partner for some nights apart, for some difficulties in finding time. You believed in the benefits of sacrificing to get to where you want. Now, you never anticipated maintaining thriving careers, parenting, or living a busy life while building a successful relationship would be easy.
