“I think my life is boring. My marriage doesn’t excite me. We don’t even ‘vibe’ like before. I don’t love you anymore. The fire is all gone.”
Most times, what you call boring is the normal nature of life. What you call mundane is peace surrounding you. And if you find that complacency has entered the relationship and you’re beginning to take each other for granted, do something about it. And that something involves communication and reviving the fire. Not seeking for what is not lost out there.
The real ‘devil’s handiwork’ is when this period comes in your relationship and you are then tested with someone around you that looks like what you’re missing in your relationship. That 20% you think is lacking. The real ‘work of the devil’ is when you allow that handshake to pass the elbow. And it can happen to anyone if you’re not watching closely. Don’t say, “it can never be me.” You’ll be shocked.
So before you say your life is boring and your partner is not exciting you anymore..are you sure it is not just the normal cycle of life you’re passing through? Have you communicated with your partner? Have you tried to revive that fire?
Don’t be in the group of, “Don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone.” Comes with deep regrets.
Hmmmn….. Jazakumullahu kayron for this.
