Why is it our instinct to do what we shouldn't to get our spouses back?


Because doing something new and different is by definition Uncomfortable for us. So we go back to what we know.

Cheeseless tunnels. Do you remember that phrase? What once worked OR seemed to work gets repeated even in the face of evidence it no longer works

or even makes things worse.

Whining and complaining are never effective at getting authentic change in them.

Why would it? I think you know this.

Someone might do something to silence us to save themselves the hassle of hearing it

but they won't want to STAY and hear that.

DBing seems counter intuitive to many people and they resist it.

Guess it's about you deciding

whether you are more uncomfortable with your life as it is -

or changing.

Once you are here, zero of your options are comfortable or painless.

THAT^^^ is hard to accept. But when you think about it, it's actually self evident.
