Did you know that you can be overcommitted in your marriage?

I received a call from my cousin Jane (Not real name) and she was sobbing profusely on the phone. I could barely hear her and had to calm her down before the conversation could proceed. Jane explained how things had taken a downward turn in her marriage. She stated being tired and burned out from taking responsibility for all the chores in the home while her husband continued to give her excuses. She expressed being irritable and angry at her children. She said “I just yell at everyone in the house, Rick (not real name) and I are constantly fighting. As I speak to you now, we haven’t spoken in the last two days and I’m so sick and tired of it.” Like Jane, many women find themselves in this cycle of defeat due to the same dynamic in their marriage. "There appears to be an imbalance in commitment to day-to-day activities and responsibilities in your home," I replied.
