It's not too late. Many separated couples have found their way back to each other - and built an even stronger marriage than before.
Living Apart, But Still Hoping
You're living in different places now. Maybe you needed space to think. Maybe things got so bad that someone had to leave. But deep down, there's still a part of you wondering: could we make this work?
Many couples in your exact situation have reconciled through Retrouvaille.
Separation Doesn't Have to Be the End
Sometimes separation is what finally gets both partners' attention. The distance can provide clarity. If both of you are willing to try - even if you're skeptical - there's hope.
Retrouvaille regularly welcomes separated couples. In fact, some of our presenting couples were separated when they first attended. They know exactly what you're going through.
What Reconciliation Really Requires
- Willingness - Both partners need to show up, even if hesitant
- New tools - The old ways of communicating didn't work; you need new ones
- Time together - Focused, uninterrupted time to work on your relationship
- Safe space - A neutral environment away from daily stresses
- Guidance - Support from those who've walked the same path
- Follow-through - Continued work after the initial breakthrough
Retrouvaille provides all of these. The weekend gives you concentrated time together with new tools, and the follow-up sessions help you sustain the progress.
Common Questions From Separated Couples
Can we attend if we're already living apart?
Yes. Retrouvaille welcomes separated couples. Many of our most successful outcomes involve couples who were living apart when they attended. The weekend provides a structured way to be together and begin rebuilding.
What if my spouse doesn't want to reconcile?
Both partners need to attend, but both don't need to be 100% committed to reconciling. If your spouse is willing to come - even out of curiosity or to give it "one last try" - that's enough to start. Many skeptical spouses have experienced breakthroughs at Retrouvaille.
Do we have to share a room?
Yes, couples share a private room during the weekend. This is part of the program design - creating space for private conversations and exercises. If this is a concern, please contact us to discuss your specific situation.
What happens after the weekend if we decide to reunite?
The follow-up sessions are crucial for separated couples. They provide ongoing support as you transition from living apart to rebuilding your life together. You'll also have access to our CORE community for long-term support. We don't just help you reconcile - we help you stay reconciled.
