The couples that do the least amount of personal growth and healing are the ones that move along the quickest but in the end are the least effective. They will likely revert to old patterns and will continue to find their marriage unfulfilling. They don't seek change and are not committed to doing the work. They never develop a deeper intimacy, consequently the temptation of infidelity will most likely go unchanged. They just move on like it never happened and do not heal the wounds of betrayal or build trust that leads to unity.
Those that take the committed path to healing will learn to improve their communication and be free from the chains of dysfunctional patterns, emotional distance, and damaging behavior. They alleviate the temptation to deceive or betray . The reality is this couple will ultimately spend less time in arguments, questioning, distrust, and find a more meaningful and healthier relationship knowing true healing and a deeper intimacy.
