“Getting divorced just because you don't love a man is almost as silly as getting married just because you do.” ~Zsa Zsa
Got me thinking about why you do marry someone. To me it's because you see the opportunity for growth in every situation you can imagine. When times are good, when they are bad, and everything in-between, you can see your partner their for you.
Which brings me to one of my frustrations. Though I've not stopped hoping, as well as actively making improvements in my and our life, my wife stopped seeing any opportunity for growth between us back in January.
This is a major issue for me. It empowers me in that I know realize that even though the love may have faded, I've always been there and willing to do whatever I could during this process. I've continued to see this as an opportunity for growth. That she no longer has that capability or has switched it off is a major turn-off.
Doing the 180 and not bringing up relationship issues is one of the toughest things I try to keep doing, but I keep thinking that there is something that will break through the barrier.
Does anyone think that some tactful mentioning of Zsa Zsa quote (I'd refrain from the source) and its application would do any good? Or would it likely just cause resentment?
