3 Signs that Your Marriage is Stuck on AUTO-PILOT, and How to Break this Negative Cycle

2.  You and your spouse try and find excuses to NOT be around each other.

When we avoid each other, for whatever reason, we have a big problem.  Avoiding one another only makes things worse.  If we have a conflict, we must sit down and talk about it.  If we have trouble talking about it, we need to seek help by going to see a counselor or pastor.  Anytime the lines of communication are down in a marriage, the relationship can no longer flourish and other parts of the marriage begin to break down as well.

We must “date” each other, and we fail to do this when we place our marriage on auto-pilot.  Aim for once a week, but really, any one-on-one time we can spend with our spouse will be beneficial to our marriage as long as we are communicating in a positive and healthy manner.  Plus, we need to have fun together.

Marriage is a blessing, not a curse.  Have. Fun. Together.
