4. Focus on what’s most important. Trust your spouse. Believe the best, even on days when you are grumpy, disconnected, or just out of sorts. Don’t look to your spouse to provide all your needs, especially when you’re feeling on the edge from anxiety or other emotional challenges. Make sure to enjoy your life outside your romantic relationship. Cultivate other friendships and hobbies. And realize, that in most situations, your time apart does have an end date, and you will be back together soon.
