Starting Over Talk - Peer Coaching Support Site

My impression is that this couple needs long-term marriage counseling before they will know if their relationship is going to work. With infidelity early on it is not off to a good start.

She should not actively punish him on a daily basis for something he can't undo, but by the same token if he cares about saving the relationship it is up to him to prove himself trustworthy, not encumbant upon her just to manufacture some trust. I think the life-coaches are wrong about how that works. If he is spending alot of time at the gym and he sees that it makes her uncomfortable why not bring her along when he wants to spend more time at the gym or at least call her during part of that time so she knows he's thinking about her. Those are two good suggestions Iyanla and Rhonda could give him.

Also, I agree that the sexy moves class is kind of inappropriate for some of them. Maybe that might be alright for certain couples but not all. Both Kacie and Jacklyn have issues surrounding sexual assault so it is poor timing and in poor taste to ask them to participate.

Bandita, Me & my honey sleep seperately and we get along a lot better for it. At first we had a king-size bed with seperate blankets but we still kept each other awake so we went to seperate rooms. When we travel, we do seperate beds in the same room, but our bedrooms at home are too small for 2 beds. At first I was not happy about it, but now I see the wisdom in it, and we actually have more "play" visits than before, because we're not tired all the time.

I agree with you. It was said on today's show that Jacylyn got smarter when the makeup came off.
