Therapy?

“…a couple comes to a point when infatuation/romance has ended and real life begins.  Ns drop out here—too much work!  Mature adults choose to stay and allow their relationships to become mutual, respectful, rich, and kind.

“It just seems so hopeless for these N’s and that’s what I can’t come to grips with, what a tortured existence they lead, I know now it’s not my fault and there’s little if nothing I can do, but can’t someone help them??????”

“I went into therapy with my N, and it didn’t help. He got the therapist to agree with him, that our unusual situation was workable, even though the burden was on me to shift to his ridiculous schedule. Rather than discuss the reasons for me moving out, they wanted to play games in sand boxes. I felt that the whole process was hopelessly superficial. He was charming, knowledgeable and agreeable, and I of course being the miserable one, looked like a wreck.”
