Complacency Kills Relationships: How One Couple Fell Back in Love by Getting on the Couch with Dr. Cheryl

from Sex, Love & Elephants with Dr. Cheryl · host Cheryl Fraser

Remember those days when you and your sweetheart first got together: the electricity of your first shared kiss, the butterflies of the first time you made love? Remember how obsessed you felt—how you couldn’t bear to imagine a day without seeing them? If you’re anything like most long-term couples, those days of all-encompassing romance are probably well in your rear-view. But do you still feel connected to your honey as a lover, or have you formed more of a partnership?  “Okay, Dr. Cheryl,” you’re saying, “We don’t yell, we don’t scream, we don’t really even disagree that often… we just aren’t really clicking the way we used to.” And here’s the thing: if there isn’t any major conflict, any knock-down-drag-out nasty fighting, no huge emotional trauma, it may be hard to realize just how much trouble you and your partner are in.  Welcome to episode five of my “On the Couch with Dr. Cheryl” series. This fall, my podcast episodes focus on the Passion Triangle. I’m featuring real-life couples from my Become Passion—Create Love That Lasts a Lifetime program, an online immersion couples program. If you and your sweetie have felt a lot more like friends and roommates than partners and lovers lately, I’ll teach you exactly how to reignite the spark. I coach you live every week and answer YOUR questions and give you the tools to create a stronger, more passionate, more successful long-term relationship. In this episode, I introduce you to Bob and Sue, a couple in a 14-year marriage who had fallen into a pattern of taking one another for granted. Luckily for them, they discovered my Become Passion program before their parallel lives became totally separate lives. Bob and Sue, unlike most of my coaching couples, weren’t fighters in the traditional sense, yet they experienced a deep emotional disconnect. Thriving relationships are rooted in the elements of the Passion Triangle, and I teach you exactly what those are and how you can put them to use. Great couples aren’t just the ones having regular sex and managing a successful household. Great couples share their hopes and dreams, they plan for the future, and they try to help make each other’s goals and aspirations come true.  Register HERE for Dr. Cheryl’s FREE couples workshop - the Passion Masterclass. In this in-depth training, Cheryl will teach you the three key ingredients couples need if they want to re-create more love, connection, passion and happiness. Plus she will tell you about her upcoming Become Passion - Create Love that Lasts a Lifetime couples immersion program AND she will stick around for an extensive Q&A and answer your specific questions about YOUR relationship!
