[quote=Anonymous] My husband has said and done things I will never forget. For a time years ago, I thought we were going to divorce. However, there is still strong affection between us, and for that to have survived despite stress incurred through job losses, lack of sympathy and acrid recriminations, shouldn't it be called love? So I ended up taking the lead on communicating better in our marriage. It was hard at first, because my husband had no clue how he was coming across and how hurtful he could be. He didn't want to see a therapist. So I modeled direct, respectful and positive communication, and called him out immediately every time he crossed a line. It was difficult, but he's gotten so much better at conveying his feelings and commenting on my own. I feel people nowadays are so quick to write off their relationships, and not work on them.
