how to save a marriage Archives

The failure of a marriage is never due to one specific thing, but a culmination of things which are at first ignored until the situation becomes untenable. Should couples become strangers to one another, it’s a long hard road back to the relationship you once had.

Tackling problems at the outset can make a tremendous difference in any marriage. Talking to each other and discussing things that cause you to feel undermined or aggravated can often help to rectify a situation before it gets out of hand.

Sharing thoughts and problems means you are retaining interest in one another, and learning to cope with whatever life throws at you as a couple. Read the rest of this entry

One of the biggest problems in marriage is that, due to familiarity, couples stop talking to one another. It can start off slowly, particularly when both are working and have little time together. The gradual drifting goes unnoticed at first, but it can suddenly become obvious that you don’t really know each other. If you want to save marriage and get back to where you were, you must start making time for each other again.

Financial worries and family problems can often cause a rift in marriage, but by talking things through these traumas can be overcome. It’s the lack of proper communication that is the hardest to deal with.

Many would say that they do communicate, but in doing so this often means they argue a lot. This is not communication, this is disruption. Read the rest of this entry

If you got married in a Church, the chances are you vowed to love one another “till death do us part”. At the time it was probably said with the intention of fulfilling that vow, but life has a way of changing things which can cause us to grow apart. The question is how do we save Christian marriage?

Living with another person challenges us in many different ways. We have to learn to tolerate their ways and come to terms with the fact that they may not be as perfect as we would like.

However, there was a reason you married in the first place, and hopefully that was because you loved them for what they were. Your Christian belief probably brought you together, so believe that it will also help you to solve your marital problems. Read the rest of this entry

Forgiveness can be so difficult for some, and yet it is so important in marriage. No-one is perfect, and everyone makes mistakes. It’s true some are worse than others, but you can always think ‘there but for the Grace of God’, so none of us are without our weaknesses.

Forgetting a birthday or wedding anniversary is not the end of the world. Yet for some this seems to indicate that their partner doesn’t love them. This small, almost insignificant misdemeanor can be the start of a gradual decline in a marriage, which escalates the longer it goes on.

An affair by either partner can have a devastating effect upon any marriage, particularly if it’s been ongoing. This is an extremely difficult thing to forgive, but before you start laying the blame it may be a good idea to consider the circumstances. Read the rest of this entry

Difficulties in a marriage often start out as something quite insignificant. Eventually these difficulties blow up out of proportion and the stress and loneliness may lead you to seek marriage counseling.

Marriage counseling is designed to help a couple resolve their differences. In order to make strides forward it’s necessary for both participants to make the effort required to understand each other’s problems.

A Counselor will adopt different roles during a counseling session. They may just be an observer, or act as a facilitator or mediator. The main object of any counseling is to enable the couple to sort out their issues themselves. Read the rest of this entry

The signs are there, and you’re aware that your partner is unhappy, or that you’re feeling miserable in the marriage. Often being aware there’s a problem makes many of us bury our heads in the sand and hope it will get better. This rarely happens and the important thing to remember is that in order to save Christian marriage it’s important to listen to each other.

Sounds simple doesn’t it? Strangely enough so many couples fall into a state of not bothering to speak to one another, and the consequence is that ultimately they become strangers.

Think back to the day you walked down the aisle and swore to God that you would love each other forever. What has changed since then to bring about your deep unhappiness in the marriage? Read the rest of this entry
