Are you living with something worse than an unhappy marriage without even knowing it?
We all know the honeymoon stage of a relationship: everything your partner does is perfect, every conversation goes smoothly, and it seems that it will be that way forever.
But, we also know that just like honeymoons, this period won't last forever. Some of these blissful starts create relationships that last a lifetime, while others crash and burn.
Do you remember when your spouse gave you a present for the first time? Or the first time you had a meaningful conversation?
