💢 How to Forgive (when you're still angry!)

Published 3 months ago • 3 min read

For most married couples, forgiveness is a daily practice.

Whether you're letting go of the little things (like your spouse loading the dishwasher “wrong”) or reeling from a deeper betrayal like infidelity or secret spending... it still hurts.

We’re human, and we all make mistakes.

But when all you feel is pain, it’s easy to get stuck in a cycle of resentment.

What we've learned over the years is that forgiveness isn’t about excusing the behavior or letting your spouse off the hook.

It’s about YOU and finding a way back to peace, even when you're still angry, heartbroken, or unsure how to move forward.

Today’s article unpacks what forgiveness really looks like in marriage and how to begin, no matter where you're starting from.

Learning how to forgive your spouse when you’re hurt, heartbroken, or disappointed is one of the most challenging (but essential) skills in marriage.

What separates thriving marriages from struggling ones isn’t perfect communication or a complete lack of conflict.

The secret weapon is something much more powerful: the ability to forgive your spouse, even when you’re still angry.

In the early stages of your relationship, romance was a key element. The two of you spent time and energy to make the other feel loved and desired.

But romance can easily fall on the back burner.

Eventually, you might find yourself thinking, “We aren’t romantic at all anymore.”

The romance between a husband and wife doesn’t have to fade over the years.

Rather, when you continually approach romance with curiosity and intentionality, you can keep your 6 Pillars of Intimacy® strong.

Understanding romance—and how it affects both of you as husband and wife—can transform your marriage into something extraordinary.

"We talk all the time, but I don't feel like we're really connecting." I (Alisa) can't tell you how often I hear this from couples I'm coaching. It can be incredibly discouraging because you feel like you're doing what you're supposed to... and yet you don't feel close emotionally. One thing I've found in working with so many couples is that what works for one couple might not work for another. So if you've just been trying to "talk more" without much success... you might be going about it...

With our anniversary right around the corner (29 years on Sunday!) I've been thinking about traditional anniversary gifts... What I love most is that each theme reflects the growing strength of marriage through the years. You start out with delicate paper in year one, then upgrade to wood, bronze, crystal, until you eventually reach unbreakable diamond (year 60). It's such a beautiful picture of how time and life's pressures create an unshakeable love and an extraordinary marriage. Now, we...
