How to Fix Our Relationship?
Posted: 09-20-06 14:53pm

So me and my hubby are on a break....... We were both very destructive to eachother during the last year. I had 2 babies in 10 months and it put alot of stress on us. I decided to work from home but started to resent my hubby for going out to work and having 'freedom' with his friends etc. I used to have snide remarks at him and cause arguments. We stopped talking and would barley say a word to eachother accept to argue.

He has basically said to me that he fell out of love with me a few months ago and he wanted it to end completley but I wanted to give it another try as the realisation that I could lose him for good was my wake up call.

Now the past few days we have started talking to each other about what went wrong in our relationship and what hurt. He said that we have to get to know each other as friends again so we can rediscover ourselves again. He said no sex and its hard for me as now I feel closer to him than ever but he said we have to start afresh.

I guess i'm just asking for advice. Has anyone else been through a communication breakdown and got through it and are still together?

What can we do to rebuild our relationship?

You got 2 beautiful babes and in such a short period time.............Big change and high stress................The relationship is worth saving but only if .Both your hearts are in it.
I can understand your feeling overwhelmed and probably feeling like your doing it all..........................But to verbally attack and argue with the hubby isn't the answer..............

.........To me, once something has been said.......A nasty word.........A degrading comment...........It is very difficult if not impossible to take it back..............

...............I've had many "communication breakdowns" with my beau........But I have .Never said anything mean, and I have never said the "hate" word..............He's a beautiful man and if it should not work out, so be it.........................Doesn't mean he's not still a beautiful person.

Lose the attitude...............Lifes too short......................And enjoy your lovely family. Smile
