The Heath & Bernie Story: Celebrating 16 Yrs
During my early twenties, I partook in the classic youthful tomfoolery and hijinks that young men oft do. Especially a young man with a new house and a brand new SUV. My father sometimes refers to young men in this stage of their lives as, "Young, daring, and...
Does your relationship have Purpose-Oriented goals or just Task-Oriented goals?
"Honey, we have to paint the bedroom." "Honey, we have to discuss what we’re going to buy my cousin for her birthday party." Honey…this…" and "Honey…that…" If you’re in a relationship, does this sound familiar. After 15 years of marriage, it does to me. But more than...

I need some desperate help in order to save my relationship with my girlfriend. We have been together for a little over 3yrs and our relationship seems to built around our ability to take care of each other on business. We both have come out of bad marriages and when we met we both fell hard for each other. I have one 20 yr old son and an older stepdaughter, while Kalima has a 17yr handicap daughter a 14yr old daughter who lives with her father and a 5yr and 11yr old. I thought I was ready to jump back into family life after my wife passed in 2014, but I have let my so called life experience cause me to become complacent. On top of that I have been drinking more than usual, and it has caused a great strain on our relationship as well as my children. She thinks that I don’t love her enough to care, but I felt that my 24yrs of marriage should speak for itself….WRONG. I need to learn how to be a better partner and live a long life with her, somehow I just can’t seem to figure it out. We have had two sessions of relationship counseling but I allowed my drinking to be an excuse not to go back. And even if she may not want to participate right now I feel if she sees me trying it will help to resolve some of our differences. Also after 18yrs with one company I was let go in 2015. I work as an independent contractor for a courier service so I spend alot of time driving.
