LOVE THERAPY
What did I do to lose his love?
“I still remember the desperation I felt when
I came home to find my now ex-husband
surrounded by suitcases. “I just don’t love
you anymore,” was his reason for leaving me.
I was stunned.
Divorced, lonely and humiliated — that was
me. What was a 24-year- old woman to do?
As I lay on my cold, double bed alone, I spent
nights hugging my pillow, wondering where
I went wrong? I tried to find reasons, but
nothing made sense. What could I possibly
have done to lose his love? My pillowcase
knew my tears all too well. I fought tooth
and nail to win him back, until the penny
finally dropped: I deserved better.
Today, my tears of sadness are now tears
of happiness. I have been happily married
to my husband for six years now. Every
anniversary that passes is a reminder of the
day my sorrow turned to joy, and every tear
that I had once cried in pain has finally been
forgotten.”

6 signs that your love life needs your attention
If you have not and are not experiencing
any of these signs, you might know
someone who is:
• A series of failed relationships, ending
one and beginning another;
• You or your partner are complacent
in your marriage, not making efforts to
solve problems or better the relationship;
• Begging for the attention of the person
you love;
• Accepting abuse for fear of being alone;
• You have traumas and inner wounds
that hold you back from believing in love;
• Because you have not loved someone
or you have been rejected by others, you
think you will always be alone.
Take this opportunity to reflect on how
you have been treating yourself. What
have you done to face your problems
and heal the wounds that are inside of
you and that make you commit the same
mistakes over and over again?
It is time to take care of you. After all,
love is more than a feeling, it’s a decision.
Decide to be happy!
