Time Away

Every couple, if possible would benefit from time away from each other. A night , a weekend whatever allows one spouse to stop reacting to the rules and values of the other spouse. Some couples emotionally merge – no longer knowing their separate needs. As a couple we order chocolate ice cream and we split a dessert. Well, if you were solo what flavor would you really want? Compromise is great but if you forget who you are then it becomes destructive. You lose your skills of independence. So this week pick up some ice cream. Your favorite flavor and then a second scoop for your partner.
