Wanting the Fairy Tale

Love, Marriage and Fairy-Tales (Help for Partners of Sex Addicts)

A fairy-tale relationship. A fairy-tale marriage.

Isn’t that exactly what we wish for ourselves when we tie the knot, and repeat the words “I do”?

We enter the relationship with hopes and dreams. We picture a long life of love and happiness. And that’s not so naïve. It’s the way things should be.

But what if there’s deception and broken trust? What if there’s betrayal and infidelity?

If this becomes our story, is it still possible to describe our marriage as a fairy-tale?

We all think we want the fairy tale, but never consider if we want the Disney version, or the Brothers Grimm.
