Love often is left holding the bag when there is betrayl or failure in a relationship and we end up not only guarding ourselves from people, we wall ourselves off from love. I agree with what David said in the last comment about the value of seeking relationship counseling from a professional. A great resource for finding local professional counselors who understand this dynamic is <a href="http://www.christiancounselingresource.com" rel="nofollow">The Christian Counseling Resource Directory</a>. I would invite anyone looking for help opening themselves back up to love to check out this online directory and ask that any counselors who practice from a Christian perspective would log on and create a no-cost listing. This is a great tool for connecting those looking for relational healing with men and women skilled in caring for the heart.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11366655027479256036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8526880586145344388.post-77364052944239414862010-10-15T12:05:39.505-07:002010-10-15T12:05:39.505-07:00You are right that it's very hard to trust aga...You are right that it's very hard to trust again after being badly hurt by one you love.<br /><br />I am married to my second wife. I was badly hurt by the break up of my first marriage and vowed not to be in the position to be hurt again.<br /><br />It took ten years from the break-up of my first marriage to my second marriage. A long time, but needed to grieve, evaluate and ultimately to grow.<br /><br />Part of that growth was to realise that contrary to how I initially felt there had been faults on both sides. Another part was to learn that we all, myself particularly included, fail. It's remarkable how easy it is for us to excuse ourselves the mistakes we make. The trick to learn is to extend at least some of this mistake tolerance to others and their mistakes.<br /><br />My (current) wife is a <a href="http://www.hertspsychotherapy.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">psychotherapist<br />counsellor who offers relationship counselling from her practice in Letchworth</a>. I think it is hugely helpful for everyone to have the help of a well and fully trained professional counsellor in all manner of issues that stop us living life to the full. The counselling relationship is a particularly good place within which to sort out relationship issues in general.<br /><br />David TaylorDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18435000290010148402noreply@blogger.com
