Transforming my relationship 30 - Day Workbook Journal ( Volume 1 )
Even the healthiest of couples can face a relationship rut, with debt, responsibilities, and children adding to the everyday relationship stress. But when It feels like the spark is fizzling out, it’s important to get things back on track.
Once in a relationship, us as women focus all our attention on trying to be the best partner by jumping through hoops for men. Women produce the affection, conduct the heart-to-hearts and steer the relationship in the direction they believe the relationship should go. But in doing so, they unintentionally create a relationship without much participation from the man.
Our need to control every aspect of the relationship teaches men they don’t need to contribute for the relationship to exist, so our men get lazy. You’re the one initiating kisses, hugs, and sex. You’re the one doing all the communication. You’re the one who plans date nights. And he isn’t worried about losing you because he knows he has you; you told him so with every gesture.
You might not even notice that you’re giving a lot more than what you’re receiving. You are basically in a relationship on your own. You will eventually become resentful because you are the one supporting the emotional weight of the relationship. You’ll get frustrated because your man never takes charge. But he can't do anything because you are doing it all yourself by habit. You never give him the chance to make a move first. There is no balance because you are offering 90% of what the relationship needs to survive. All he's doing is sitting at the table.
This challenge will give him a chance to prove he is your man and let him meet you halfway by triggering his need to put in the effort too.
