It used to be termed the seven-year itch, but now people are labeling it the three-year glitch. It sometimes seems that all romances are doomed to end in divorce. And that can seem like a GREAT reason to avoid intimacy.
But the truth is, love doesn't have to end - when we love with emotional availability.
Face it--living in our world, it is hard to sustain a good relationship. We have so many competing priorities (work, money, family, etc) that it can be easy to diverge from our partner or put other things before love. And, I will admit, the first years of any marriage can scare the daylights out of anyone. Commitment is tough - I make no bones about that.
And, I will affirm that ove and a strong, lasting, joyful partnership are completely possible! When we do the work to identify, seek out, and partner with an emotionally available person, we choose someone who can really show up for us through the tough stuff. ALSO, because we face and overcome our own blocks to intimacy as we heal our own issues with emotional availability, we become someone to be counted on.
Divorce is not inevitable when you are emotionally available. Are you?
