Why Can’t I Decide To Stay Or Go?

Have you ever been stuck in a place of indecision over what to do in a relationship?  So many of us have.  And for living in such a relational culture as we do, we aren’t offered much modeling or wise guidance.  Often, we absorb messages like “when they’re the one, you just know” and “when they’re the right person, even the hard stuff is easy.”  We beg to differ!  These adages might be true for some, but the reality is they’re just not helpful for the rest of us, or worse, they can cause us a lot of confusion, fear and pain.  We might think that by staying stuck in indecision we are avoiding trouble or repercussions that could be caused by one of two options, but actually, staying in a place of indecision is a third option and a psychological place all its own.  This week, Rebecca, Vickey and Jules explore the costs and rewards of each option, when staying in indecision is the right thing to do (yes, even indecision has its purpose!) and a couple of exercises you can try at home to glean more information to help you make a choice.
