“Romantic love delivers us into the passionate arms of someone who will ultimately trigger the same frustrations we had with our parents but for the best possible reason! Doing so brings our childhood wounds to the surface so they can start to be healed.”
Harville Hendrix
As painful as it when we are triggered in our intimate relationships it also extremely useful. Unless we deal with, identify, and understand our personal childhood triggers we can feel old pain over and over again and react out of our past. Marriage can guide you to a deeper understanding of yourself and open your eyes to triggers that you have been avoiding or protecting since you were young. Learning what those triggers are and how to vulnerably share it with your partner is valuable work.
