Kristen Update

[hkellick]

We talked alot. We agreed that we still had alot to work out. We're going to go find a counselour, probably sometime this week, and start going to couples therapy.
I'm not sure that I'm happy about going back to a counselour, but hopefully this works out better in the end.

I wish you both the best of luck. You guys really care for each other and I know you can pull through.

I think this is a good idea, since the worst of your issues seem to be communication issues. Once you're communicating well, you can work the rest out on your own.

I agree. I do think this is the worst of our issues. We have a few others besides, but most of them come back to what we say (and don't say) and how we say it.

I think this will be good for both of you. I know you both tend to talk to a third party when things get rough. I think the counselor will really just be the same thing.

The key, with therapy, is really finding someone you feel comfortable with. If you don't feel comfortable, very little progress can really be made because you won't be able to be as open and honest as is really necessarily in a therapy/counseling situation. At least, that's been my finding.

Good luck, and love, to both of you.

Good luck. Am thinking of you both, and hoping things go well.
