34 ~ Limitations in Marriage

Do you struggle with the limitations of your spouse? Are you looking for ways to love that spouse, in spite of his or her weakness? Meet Orin and Chartina Voorheis. They’ve been married 20 years. The goodwill between them is strong. The idea of an interview with them entered my mind precisely when a newly married man, whose wife brought undisclosed mental illness into their marriage, asked me what a reasonable baseline functioning requirement might be for him to have of her. In some ways, they are a unique couple; but in the metrics of marital success, Orin and Chartina are standard bearers. 03:55 - how they met 13:58 - Orin’s injury 23:07 - disabilities of spirit and body 26:06 - their communication 30:58 - masculinity and femininity 39:45 - positive sentiment 46:36 - her decision to marry him Get affordable, continuous help for those chronic pain points in your key relationships here: https://bit.ly/monthlyrelationshipcoaching Support the cause ✔️ PayPal: https://paypal.me/eekbin?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US ✔️ Venmo: @justinmbird The Relationship textbook 📘 Paperback: https://bit.ly/theonerelationship 💻 Ebook: https://amzn.to/37JmXo4 Merchandise https://www.eekbin.us Be with me https://www.instagram.com/justinmbird/ https://www.facebook.com/relationshipconsultingservices/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/justinmbird/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wheretwobecomeone/message
