Have you ever felt disappointed, angry, frustrated, etc. with your spouse? While you felt that way, did you decide you were just going to love them anyway?
And did you get the feeling that sometimes they felt that way about you, too, but decided to be patient and love you, anyway?
I love dh, and dh loves me, but we, too, have had our share of conflict and disillusion. But we don't let it get us off the rails . . . most of the time.
What is your experience of just making it work, even when you were not delighted? When have you just decided to be loving and kind to your spouse, even when maybe you did not feel loving and kind? Did it soften his/her heart? Did it soften yours?
And if you have had times when you just decided that from your end, you were going to make it work, what made you take that approach?
