Introduction
They have a relationship that is hard. They have the feeling that they have to work hard for it to keep it going, that they have give themselves completely. This gives them the feeling that they are constantly busy for their spouse. It is as if it is never enough, that their husband is never satisfied, that he always thinks and says that their love is not real, otherwise she would have done more.
It can also be that they demand from their spouse the complete love. The proof of their love is that they do everything for them, that their life is completely for the love and marriage.
This leads to much grief, sadness and irritation, sourness.
