"My partner and I are communicating openly and honestly for the first time in our marriage.  I didn’t understand how I could sit next to someone on the couch every night and feel completely alone at the same time.  I realized I was feeling lonely because the connection we were having wasn’t actually a connection.  We learned that we often fight because it kept us connected and that was better than no connection - somehow fighting met a need.  Now we are choosing to spend positive time together without distractions instead and the fighting has dropped off.  We had never thought about how fighting actually kept us connected to each other but we prefer this new connection so much more.” -M.W.
