Marriage Help: Where Did the Intimacy Go?

December 21st, 2007 by Aaron from FullTiltMarriage.com · Be First to Comment

When you fall in love, you are happy. You spend every waking minute together. You can’t keep your hands off of each other. You spend hours talking and you never run out of things to say. You feel heard, you feel understood. So what happens to make this togetherness impossible to keep up?

Intimacy Obstacles

Fatigue - You are too tired because you are too busy. You say yes to low priority events even though you want to say no. You don’t make the relationship the #1 priority. Taking better care of yourself will help this obstacle. Start implementing a healthy lifestyle. Set boundaries and stick to them.
Not enough time together. It is a must to make time for each other. You fall into the trap of being too busy and it destroys many relationships. Work, hobbies, friends, and even children seem to come first. You can beat this obstacle by making time together a priority. Quality and quantity of time is important. Experts agree that couples need to spend at least 10 hours per week together. Make time without the kids.
Working on the marriage…tomorrow. If you continue to find time for everything but the relationship, the wedge between the two of you will continue to grow. My dad has a saying, “If you continue to do the same thing the next 5 years as you did the last 5 years, you will continue to get the same result”. Make each other the priority and watch your marriage grow. If you need help, get it now. Don’t wait until it is too late.

Marriage Help: Is Someone Out to Steal Your Spouse?

November 30th, 2007 by Aaron from FullTiltMarriage.com · 4 Comments

Sweetheart Stealing

Have you ever been in love with someone else’s lover? Have you tried to lure him/her away from their boyfriend, girlfriend, partner, or spouse? This is much more common than we all realize. The famous 80’s song by Rick Springfield “Jesse’s Girl”, tells the story well, longing for your friend’s girl, wondering what he has that you don’t.

The International Sexuality Description Project was conducted in 53 countries. The psychologists polled 16,000 individuals in an attempt to understand this behavior. Psychologists call this behavior “mate poaching” and it is common across all countries and cultures. In fact, 20% of all long-term relationships started out this way.

This isn’t just about a short-term fling. You can seriously fall in love with another man’s wife. What do you do if this is the case? Do you tell the woman or do you respect the bounds of matrimony?

I think that the respectful thing to do would be to wait. If she is unhappily married, she will leave him eventually. The thing is, 62% of men and 40% of women say that they have attempted to lure away someone else’s partner.

What is your opinion on this? Do you think that it is okay to “steal someones sweetheart“? Does the end justify the means? Let me know what you think.
