Final Thought
Dr. Phil reminds couples that you don't have to have your partner actively involved to start making major changes in your relationship. If you change the way you're in it, you'll change what you get back from it.
Should you have to do it? Probably not. Should you be the only one doing it? Probably not. But this isn't about being right, it's about being happy. If you get the results you want, why do you care where they came from? Just do it.
