    I have to ask you: Did your relationship crumble because of your jealousy and anger?

    Some people break down and complain about others to build themselves up. This kind of jealousy shows itself many different ways but it often leads to separation because your partner cannot handle the swings of emotion and anger that is displyed by this type of person.

    Love can handle most things but when you show an anger that cannot be hugged away then you should realize that you need serious professional help to deal with these issues.’

    And your relationship will survive if you make the effort.

    Every marriage is important so each one deserves a full effort from both parties. But sometimes a couple will experience trouble and it seems that there is no way to solve the problem without divorce. If this is happening to you there are ways to save a marriage, but it will take effort on the part of both people.

    The important thing to remember here is communication. Often, as couples settle into their marriage, they start to become complacent. They feel as if there is no further need to put any effort into their relationship. Both people fall into a routine and life just happens without giving any special attention to it. This is the main problem with marriage today.

    If there has not been a consistent effort from both parties then now is not the time to focus on that: this is more of a survival period. This is the time that you both need to sit down together and talk. No arguing, and no finger pointing: just talk.

    This is the time to be brutally honest. Write down everything that you love about the other person. Make the list as long as you can. Now, look over the list. When was the last time that you told the other person how much you love these traits about them? People love to feel wanted and this would be a good time to start letting the other person know that they are, in fact, wanted.

    Ask the other person if there are things you can do to make the marriage better for them. Couples always go out of their way for each other until they marry. Then, they settle in for the long haul and things start to slip. Recognizing an area that needs improvement shows that you are genuinely interested in working on it. Showing effort and concern shows the other person that you do to want to give up and they shouldn’t either.

    If communication has broken down too far then do not be afraid to bring in outside help. Counselors are trained to listen and will not take sides. And sometimes seeing things from an outside perspective brings clarity to the problem.

    Many people want to save a marriage, but they might just feel so frustrated that they think it is too late. There is always time to start the healing process. Communication, patience, understanding and love are all important parts that must work together in order to be successful.

    “Help save marriage from falling apart!” comes the cry from many who see their marriage sinking quickly.

    You have been watching the ship you are on sinking but haven’t figured out what to do to stop it. If you aren’t ready to see your marriage sink into the abyss, you need help save marriage advice. You need an S.O.S. You need to learn to sacrifice for your marriage, you have to learn to open up and communicate, and you have to learn to simplify your lives so things aren’t so complicated.

    Sacrifice:
    Many times those who are wanting help save marriage are really more interested in trying to get the other person to fix their problems. If you are looking at the other person as the root of the problem, take a close look at yourself. It may very well be that the other person is causing all the problems but you need to make sure that you aren’t making matters worse.

    Most of the time marriages fall apart because one or both of the people start getting selfish and feel that the world revolves around them.

    The truth is that if that is your perspective, the marriage is doomed.

    The two of you are supposed to be as one and this can not be if you are only looking out for #1. You have to be able to sacrifice parts of yourself for the existence of the marriage. It takes the two of you realizing that if you want to be as one, you may have to sacrifice yourself. The choice is simple, live as one or live as two people.

    Open Up:
    There is a tendency that many people have to bottle things up when we are stressed. This isn’t healthy for any individual and it especially isn’t healthy for a marriage. When contents are under pressure for too long and that pressure grows, things are likely going to build up too much. When thing build up too much they may reach the point that there is an explosion.

    There may have been firecrackers going off when the two of you first kissed. It is nothing like the Nuclear Bomb that could go off when you have let things stay bottled up for two long in a marriage. The longer you wait to bring resolution or to communicate problems, the bigger the explosion will be. You need to open up a bit to take off the pressure and help save marriage.

    Simplify:
    We have a tendency to make things a lot more complicated than what they need to be. We make big issues out of little ones and mountains out of mole hills. Blowing things out of proportion is something that many who need help save marriage will do that makes things worse than they need to be.

    Consider what it is that you really need to have in a mate. What is it you really need to exist. Try and simplify it as much as possible. Stop looking at all the details and try to find the root of the problems.

    Are you making too many demands? Are you being too picky about how you think things should be? Are you expecting too much?

    Take a step back and consider that you may be making things more complicated than they need to be. Simplify and you just may be able to help save marriage.

    Marriage in crisis

    Marriage in crisis

    Getting married is supposed to be one of the happiest days of a person’s life.

    The truth is that the day itself can be a wonderful experience, but then that happiness has a way of wearing off over time. While statistics vary, the number of marriages that end in divorce is far too high. This doesn’t mean you are doomed to split up just because you said your vows, but it does raise the question “is you marriage in trouble?”

    With the modern state of marriage, the chances are good that your marriage is facing some sort of trouble. However, being in trouble is not the same as saying that it is over. The sooner you can identify the warning signs, the better the odds are that you can save your marriage. With that in mind, here some signs of a troubled marriage.

    Sign of a Troubled Marriage #1 – Apathy

    When you stop caring about what happens to your spouse, or to your marriage, it is a clear sign of trouble. If you have stopped arguing because nothing really matters then that’s not good. That’s not to say that arguments are enjoyable, because they’re not. But at least when you are arguing it shows that you are upset, and you can only be upset when you care. Perhaps the opposite of love is hate, but apathy ranks right up there.

    Sign of a Troubled Marriage #2 – Spending Less Time Together

    This should come as no surprise, but the less time you spend together, the worse it is for a healthy relationship. to be fair, there are some couples who rarely spend any time with each other, and they say that’s the key to a happy marriage. But that’s not a real marriage, that’s two people trying to avoid getting on one another’s nerves. There’s nothing wrong with having free time and spending time away from each other, but if it gets out of hand, then your marriage may be in trouble.

    Sign of a Troubled Marriage #3 – Decrease in Physical Intimacy

    There may be any number of reasons for a lack of intimacy. You need to look for a sudden lack of interest and then see what the underlying causes are. This could be a result of a medical condition or stress. On the other hand, it could be a sign of a troubled marriage, but don’t assume until you find out the root of the problem.

    Sign of a Troubled Marriage #4 – Communication Breakdown

    While this is usually one of the earlier signs, it can be hard to spot. Why? Because you’re not communicating with each other. The reason this can lead to trouble is that it turns small problems into bigger ones. You need to be able to talk about things, and do so in a reasonable and adult manner.

    Is your marriage in trouble? By answering the above questions, you will have a better idea of where your relationship stands. The sooner you are aware of these trouble spots, the sooner you can work to fix them.

    Well, you blew it and now you are crying, “I want my wife back!” Was it something dumb that you did or kept doing? You probably had it coming, then. You dug your hole and now you’re stuck in it. So are you going to just stay in that hole or are you going to try and climb out of it? If you are serious when you say, “I want my wife back” then you better get climbing.

    Those who “want my wife back” need to know this word: HUMILITY. You better believe that it is going to take some crawling and some begging if you are going to get her back. You can’t start feeling that you are too good to come back to her on your knees. If she is still mad at you, you probably deserve it.

    The first thing you need to do is admit that you messed up. Don’t make excuses for it and don’t try to cover it up. If she starts telling you how bad it is, you have to agree with it. This is no time to try and defend what you did. Don’t lie about it, you have to be honest. Lying will only get you in more trouble. Also, don’t try and gloss over it saying it wasn’t that big of a deal. If it cost you your marriage, then obviously it was a big deal.

    The second thing that you are going to have to do is not just tell her that you are going to better. You may have tried that before but didn’t get better. You have to make her believe it. It will take more than words to get her to believe it. If there is something that you did that you should stop doing then you probably need to take steps to stop it.

    For those of you that have a problem with drugs or alcohol, you better go and get some help. You should be working on that before you start telling her that you are trying to change. If it has to do with anger issues, get enrolled in anger management classes and start taking them. Whatever problem it is she says you have, you better be making steps to get it corrected. If you really “want my wife back” you better get serious about making those changes.

    You may find this to be a lot of work and that is because it is hard work. You may think that you are just fine the way you are but “the way you are” caused the breakup to happen in the first place. The way you were wasn’t good enough.

    Your pride may cause you to believe that you are too good to do a lot of the above but to get your wife back you need to lose your pride and learn a lot of humility. You can’t let your pride get in the way of doing what you need to do to when you “want my wife back”.
