How to ruin a perfectly good relationship
Over the years in my practice as a marriage and family therapist, I have witnessed the many ways people hurt those that they love most and damage the relationships that matter most.
Of course, no one starts out wanting to destroy a perfectly good relationship. The damage to relationships often starts with small hurts that we feel. Instead of talking about the hurt and dealing with it, we may keep quiet thinking that it is not worth fighting over.
When not dealt with, these tiny resentments built up over time, create emotional distance and begin to show up in our behaviour in little ways. It is these little ways that we fail to be there for each other or hurt each other that add up over time and erode the love that is there.
Other ways that we ruin relationships is by not being aware of actions and behaviours that create discord and destroy love.
This month we will focus on how NOT to ruin a perfectly good relationship by exploring all the ways that we CAN ruin a relationship.
We will explore alternatives to damaging behaviour that will build and strengthen the relationship over time instead of ruining it.
Let us learn to fight FOR our relationships instead of WITH each other.
