  • Intimacy is an important part of a romantic relationship and one of the first areas to suffer if the marriage is going through a difficult season. @imbetweenshow
  • God designed both spouses to invest continually in their attachment to each other. Couples need to work to keep their love secure and safe. @drhenrycloud
  • When a marriage contains conflict or hurt, we tend to busy ourselves in other people and activities. Busyness is less painful than facing some seemingly unsolvable problem in love day after day. @drhenrycloud
  • The reality is that marriage is only as good as the investment people make in it. @drhenrycloud
  • Living in unconditional grace is never an excuse to be irresponsible or hurtful. @drhenrycloud
  • There are other issues surrounding the fact that you do not want to be physically intimate with your spouse. @imbetweenshow
  • Never make the one you love feel alone, especially when you’re there. @GottmanInst
  • Every positive thing you do in your relationship is foreplay. @GottmanInst

One significant takeaway from our latest episode with @shannonbrinkwriter is the power of empathy in relationships, especially when one partner is enduring prolonged suffering. Shannon emphasizes that genuine empathy, rather than superficial reassurances, is crucial. This approach helps foster an environment where both partners feel heard and understood, navigating their struggles together. It’s a reminder of how important it is to be truly present with our loved ones in their times of need.
