Relationship MYTH type # 2
-You got married because it was "the right thing to do"-
You may have believed that you were in love but you probably were not, and found yourself accidentally jumping head first into an unsatisfying love life!
Often you felt secretly guilty, numb, doubtful, sad; you found yourself trapped in a dull relationship.
You may have loved your spouse and maybe you still do, but hey! one thing is to love someone and another very different thing is to be able to deepen those extraordinary feelings of intimacy, belonging, contentment, to be comfortably
yourself with nothing to hide as you grow older together and enjoy a more fulfilling and happier life.
In a nutshell, you sacrificed and hid your feelings, refrained your passion, perhaps even your sex drive, your zest for life, all because you thought that it was “the right thing to do”.
Does it sound familiar? Those feelings of obligation, frustration, sadness, and emptiness… You felt responsible and obligated…
... because you believed that it was your duty to stay in that relationship and there was no way you could ever leave your spouse (and perhaps get separated from your children if you had any) and correct the mistake.
Even though the fact is that the right thing to do was to not get married, period, the decisions you made, good and bad, are what make you human and what shaped you into who you have become.
Thank goodness, it's over because now you are free to start a new, fresh, exciting and loving relationship as soon as you heal FAST that part of you that got you living through that myth.
And being aware of it is the first step to resolve your relationship stories.
Hoping that you go to sleep tonight feeling a little happier and that tomorrow you feel much happier than today.
