i have never been married but i know from friends and family members and just watching others around me that marriage is hard work and the work can be rewarding especially if on the same page.

I am not married, never have been, and am not really in a position to consider it, however I do think that relationships can be challenging. You are blending together different personalities, goals, ways of thinking, and sometimes different belief systems. It can take work to blend them together in a way that works without either person losing themselves. I imagine that when you are married (especially when you have been married for a very long time), it is easy to grow apart. So it is good that there are programs out there designed to help people to navigate things.

I can see how focusing on the problems caused them to grow and fester. Negativity has a way of doing that – t sneaks up and takes over. :o/

The important thing is that you are both there for your kids, even if it means co-parenting. The fact that you were able to put an end to your marriage in amicable terms is also great.

Marriage is definitely not always easy. It really is constant work if you want it to stay happy and healthy…and that’s not to say it will ever be perfect!

In reply to Michelle. Allowing each other space can totally help keep the bond - so that you always feel as you are individual and a partner! Love that idea!
