Continued From Detox Your Life - Toxic Friendship

Warning Sign: When he’s mad at you there’s always a good reason (”I can’t believe you did that to me”). But when the tables are turned, he dismisses your concerns (”Don’t be so sensitive”).

Mend It: Clarify your goals and set limits. “People usually say they want the bad stuff to go away, but they don’t focus on what they’d like to replace it with,” says Bernstein.

Is marriage a contract or a covenant?
So many times we hear marriage referred to as a contract. Sometimes it’s even called “just a piece of paper”.
