Great Question…

Let me tell you a story.

Last December, a young and beautiful couple came to one of my relationship workshops. They loved each other very much…

But here’s where the story gets weird.

You see, even though the loved each other, their situation is hopeless. This couple had tried everything and the situation just got worse. No matter how hard they tried, their relationship problems just got recycled rather than resolved.

Sound familiar?

They had done their best, but nothing changed. They had hit a wall – run up against a Relationship Roadblock… And… there was nothing they could do about it. They felt helpless, hopeless, hurt, frustrated and disappointed.

It wasn’t fair, they had tried so hard and loved each other so much and still, it looked like it was going to end in a painful divorce.

Their conversations often ended up with misunderstandings… misunderstandings that led to arguments… arguments that eventually
ended up with the silent treatment.

And both of them ended up walking around on egg shells – avoiding each other and avoiding the issues…

Henry and Velina showed up at the workshop feeling pretty overwhelmed and hopeless. They even announced on the first day of the workshop that they were going to break up. The only reason they were there was to be learn how to communicate better through the separation.

Over the course of the weekend, Henry and Velina learned new communication tools and worked hard improve their skills.

They practiced like crazy. There were tears and upsets and heart-to-heart talks and breakthroughs. And by the end of the weekend they were communicating much more openly and honestly about their individual feelings and needs.

They went home and I didn’t hear from them for a while. And then one day I got this email from Velina:

You see… all relationships will eventually hit a wall… a relationship roadblock where the problems, misunderstandings and issues are bigger than ability to overcome them.  When you hit that relationship wall – things look hopeless. And then, the harder you try to fix things, the worse they get.

Isn’t it time to be able to bring back the intimacy and passion, to resolve conflicts quickly, to clear up misunderstanding before the feeling are hurt, to talk so you partner really wants to listen and understand you… and to listen in a way your lover wants to open up and talk honestly.
