Each year there are over one million divorces in America. Each divorce is preceded by a marital crisis. A crisis begins when a spouse’s commitment to the marriage becomes uncertain. The message, “I’m not sure I want to be married” brings a cascade of emotion. Deeply hurt and wanting desperately to save the marriage, the rejected mate grasps-often destructively-for something to preserve the relationship.
Crumbling Commitment: Managing a Marital Crisis is a lifeline for those who are left feeling helpless and powerless to respond to their distancing mate. From the initial shock that comes with the knowledge that one’s spouse is not committed to the marriage to the final decision to reconcile or divorce, this book helps the reader to make decisions and regain power in each stage of the marital crisis.

"Crumbling Commitment" It is hard to go through crisis in your marriage. It is even harder to know what to do or where to go when it feels like everything is crumbling and you are exhausted. Dr. Horton gives excellent information and tools to help a couple move through the crisis and beyond. He takes them step by step through the possible paths that lay before them and encourages them to search and find what is best for them. It is clear that he respects the delicacy of marriage and of individual hearts, needs, and dreams. This book acts as a detailed, informative guide for any couple needing hope, strength, guidance, and growth. I highly recommend it! Dr. Heather M. Browne, LMFT, PsyD www.TheHealingHeart.net
