When you decided to continue with the relationship, in all cases it is essential to work at the relationship! If nothing changes you will probably get the same problems again. It can help you to get a clearer view and help you to improve your relationship. This considerably reduces the risk of one of the partners experiencing bias or partiality.

Usually in the period before the time-out you have exhaust yourself to the limit. As a result you first have to gain power before you can get a clearer view of the situation. When some rest is established it is recommended to analyse what has gone wrong and what your personal contribution is in the problems.

On the other hand a time-out can provide both spouses the rest which is necessary to gain some energy in order to work on the relationship. During this period of rest, it is good to examine and work on the relationship if only because you’ll always will be parents. You must be able to communicate with each other when you are together but also when you go on without each other. In order to make the impact on children as little as possible you can use  the weekday’s- time-out that is widely used in households with children. It’s okay to make certain agreements together, of what is and is not desirable during the timeout. A golden rule is that there will be no intimate relationships with other people.

You experience pressure or stress and find it difficult to deal with. I learned so much from family, teachers, coaches, therapists, trainers and mostly from friends. My life has been enriched and my world has expanded because others were willing to share their world with me. Often only one of the spouse is receptive for a relationship time-out.

You give yourself and your partner the opportunity to look at the relationship from a distance. In this kind of situation the timeout can lead to a more balanced decision. Therefore, it is important that you shape the relationship timeout as good as possible for both partners. Relaties en partner met ADHD can see that the timeout does not always have to be a long period of time. It also can be something you do at home with “rest days” where you’re just not together. In this case too, most clients get more insight into their problems after five sessions.

It works even faster than cocaine – creating an instant jolt in our bodies that is “covering up” the real issues. It “feels good” in the moment, but its self-perpetuating cycle makes it impossible for intimacy and connection. You can get back your strength and you can build up social contacts or tighten them. On the other hand, not living together can also work negatively, especially when there is no occasionally work done in the relationship and / or at yourself. Lack of communication can then cause you to grow further apart.

It is important therefore to have some kind of time-out plan. Under the heading “Examples” you can find some examples of plans that  I have guided as relationship counsellor. Perhaps you find out during the relationship timeout that you do not yet have done everything to improve the relationship.

I was one year old when I came to the Netherlands with my parents in 1958. Indonesia and biculturality have played a major role in my life. It was not always easy to grow up as an Indonesian girl in a predominantly white environment. I learned that being ‘different’ can evoke both positive and negative reactions.

Sadly, taking no action then usually  will result in a breakup. When you are in this kind of situation it can be useful to talk with an outsider such as a coach or counsellor. They can help you by talking through the opportunities  and  perhaps suggest less dramatic  actions that can be taken. The initiative usually comes from  a partner who is emotionally and/or physically breaking down because of a high tensed situation.
