Q - Dear Annabelle,
How do I bring back the fire of a failing 5 and a half year relationship. This relationship involves my fiance and I, my 3 children, 2 from previous relationships and 1 from him. I pleaded with him to consider trying to make the family work. We did at one point live together but now he's moved in with his mom which is upstairs from where we lived. He is a good,hardworking young man with a lot of goals and ambitions in life. We have grown to become friends as well as lovers at one point. He's agreed to give the relationship one last try but he's still wants to live with his mother and that's perfectly all right with me even though I would rather him come home to his family because his mother doesn't like me for some reason so she's all against us getting back together so you can imagine how the conversations are there. Just give me some advice on how to bring the spice back into our relationship. I want him to look at me in that same way that caused me to fall in love with him and I also want the closeness back with my children.
A - Dear Charmaine,
Thereās not much help I can be.....youāve given away all your power so thereās no point my going over, now, what MIGHT have worked. You could consider enlisting the services of a marriage and family therapist or a social worker. I realize that my lack of answers to your situation is disappointing, but, with the way this is structured, and the way each of the two of you are focused, there really IS nothing for me to do here.
- Annabelle
