There is a painting of some flowers to your left and another painting of some flowers to your right. You sit on a comfortable chair positioned on a comfortable carpet. You both sit there, speechless and upset. We bet you didn’t think it would ever come to this – sitting in the counselor’s office with the person you once loved.

When your current spouse asked for your hand in marriage, you most likely imagined what most people envision a marriage to be: your spouse would be well-groomed and well-dressed each and every day. You both would embrace after a long work day, loaded with passion by the sight of each other spending the whole day unbearably apart. But here’s the funny part: that vision was true! It wasn’t just a vision! Your partner once did dress that way. You did have that passion.
