On today's episode of Marriage Helper Live, Dr. Joe Beam responds to:
"My wife filed for divorce. What I've learned through Marriage Helper is to try to extend the divorce time to give it time to calm down, so I responded that 'I didn't think the marriage was broken' and it infuriated her. How do I respond now?""My family friend has had an on and off affair with my husband for 7 years. Is this limerence?""How do I reconnect with my wife to get her to see that there's hope & change that can happen?""
