It broke my heart.

A couple I have been counseling with for a year and a half decided to call it quite.

Most people in failed relationships neglect to look at the role they played in the failure. They are much more comfortable pointing a finger at their partner and squarely placing the blame on his or her shoulders. In all the time I have worked with couples, I have never seen a relationship fail simply because of one person’s shortcomings. Both people contribute to the break up of a relationship.

 

I have always wondered why they don't get help sooner. By the time a couple finally seeks out a counselor, it is already too late.  Usually, they are looking for an exit strategy.
