The journey from marital bliss to the brink of divorce isn't a sudden leap—it's a gradual drift marked by subtle warning signs that many couples miss until it's almost too late. After celebrating 15 years together, we're pulling back the curtain on the year we nearly ended our marriage.
Small phrases can become relationship poison. For years, during arguments, I would say to Pierre, "Maybe you married the wrong person." Though I never doubted he was right for me, I questioned whether I was right for him. After a decade of hearing this, he began to believe it might be true. These seemingly innocent words created deep fractures in our foundation.
The emotional withdrawal was perhaps most telling. Physical touch, once a primary love language for Pierre, became uncomfortable. "I'm fine" became our mantra—a dangerous lie that masked deeper problems. Communication broke down to the point where every conversation felt like navigating a minefield—even simple questions about daily tasks could explode into conflict.
Our challenges were compounded by cultural differences as an interracial couple, the struggles of marrying young, and surrounding ourselves with people who normalized divorce. Pornography, criticism, and resentment further eroded our connection.
What saved us? Two critical elements: individually seeking God when we couldn't pray together, and professional therapy that helped us escape the conversation loops we couldn't break on our own. Our therapist knew our personality types and gave us practical tools to rebuild what was broken.
Today, we're passionate about helping others recognize these warning signs before reaching crisis point. If you're seeing these patterns in your relationship, there's still hope. We'd love to pray with you, connect you with resources, or simply be a listening ear as you navigate your own journey. Remember—even a marriage on the brink can be restored to something stronger than before.
