I Love You... I Just Don't LIKE You Right Now
If you'd rather be at work than at home, then you may not LIKE your spouse... or, if you'd prefer to spend time with others over your spouse, then you may not LIKE each other as much as you realized. The examples go on! This problem is not uncommon among otherwise happily married couples. What's uncommon, however, is when couples know how to get back to a place of friendship even though their friendship has all but died. Listen and enjoy, we hope this episode helps and blesses you.
