    Yes i have.

    The down side with counselling with me, is that it allowed me to wallow in my own grief, and get stuck feeling sorry for myself, not moving on.

    Then when i finished the counselling, i felt worse than i have ever felt - feeling that the counsellor had abandoned me and that i could not go it alone.

    In fact it was when i finished the counseling that i got myself together and started living my life again - because i had no choice.

    Yes, I've been there and done that. Too personal to list a topic for you though. I went in after my first marriage, enough said there. I also went in when I was in college.

    Overall, I haven't been in a very long time. I keep on keeping on with Jesus and a postive attitude.

    I do think it has a great value; sometimes we need to see things from another side and be willing to make a change to not only help ourselves but also help others too.

    If your spouse says "I have fallen out of love with you" don't panic. It doesn't mean your marriage is over. It doesn't even mean they don't love you. How to get your spouse to love you again https://tr.im/3ZKzO

    What it does mean is that your spouse has lost their way, or doesn't understand the many stages love and a relationship goes through.

    You are being called to take charge of the situation, guide your spouse towards understanding this process, and even begin to rekindle your relationship.

    The key to success is in understanding what is happening in your marriage and the role that love plays. It's very easy for us to connect losing the feelings of being in love with actual loving when it is not really the case.
