Save My Marriage
Divorce in this country has been on the rise for quite awhile now. Many divorces occur because the couples involved are unwilling or unable to deal with the difficulties that affect their marriage. Currently, over 2 million couples divorce every year. What's sad is that a number of these may have been prevented if good communication was maintained. Maintaining acceptable levels of affection, trust, romance, and communication in your marriage is never an easy task, but if you want to save your marriage it's something you should probably consider.
It's normal for couples to have disagreements and misunderstandings once in a while. When couples live together as a newly duo, it's only natural that each one's individuality will come through and conflicts will arise. In an ideal world, couples could sit down and openly discuss the issues affecting their relationship and together arrive at an acceptable resolution. But life does not usually work that way and so we have to deal with things the best we can.
So in this not so ideal world, here are a few tips to help you save your marriage in as little as one week.
1. Avoid asking questions that may provoke negative responses. Don't force someone to become defensive and to potentially feel negative about themselves. Nothing good can come from it. Every time trust becomes an issue in a marriage, one member of the marriage begins to scrutinize the other's every move. Where is he/she? What are they doing? Who are they with?
Don't get caught up in gossip and hearsay. Be sure to keep your suspicions to yourself until there is reason or very credible evidence to doubt your partner.
2. Be sure that you're practicing unconditional love in your relationship. That is, a love that knows no condition and a love that knows no bounds. Unconditional love will aid in seeing past and accepting your spouse's imperfections.
3. Be sure to practice being faithful and supportive to your spouse. Learn from past situations, the good and the bad ones. Don't just learn from them, but also grow and become better. Be sure to admit when you've made a mistake. Be sure your spouse realizes how important your marriage is to you, and be sure that they know how much you are willing to fight for the survival of the marriage.
4. Learn what the how to identify the and avoid these "relationship killers":
• Not keeping promises
• Allowing your pride to get in the way
• Disregarding your spouse's feelings and concerns
• Not able to control your temper or emotions
• Showing disrespect to your partner
• And of course, lying.
Just keep these things in mind, and saving your marriage within one week is well within your grasp. It won't be easy, but as long as you give it your best efforts, working through your marital issues while remaining open and honest, you stand a good chance of getting your marriage back on the right track.
