3.  Discern

    1. Your spouse’s needs or desires
      1. Insecurity may mean your spouse has a need you can meet
      2. Sexually your spouse may need more (or less)
        1. The issue here is whether or not you are focused on your need or your spouse’s need

  1. Decide - that it is what you want.

    2. It is always attainable
    3. It is always worth it . . .
      1. Divorce is never an easy option
