Knowing What Needs To Be Done To Save A Marriage

If the reluctant or unwilling partner resists the idea of counseling or backs away from attempts to save the marriage, the other spouse should try to persistently nudge (without being pushy) that person toward doing so.

Or if a hesitant spouse is open to new ideas on saving the marriage, by making a few changes, the constructive spouse must continuously influence the neutral spouse to move in that direction of implementing these new changes or adjustments to make the marriage work.

There are plenty of ways to use the many ways to save a marriage, even with one party to the marriage actively engaged in these ways. One important thing is that the spouse that is going to make this attempt and efforts must go about it in the right way. This is where some marital education and consultation comes into play. The aid of credible, professional counseling and advice that can show the ways to save a marriage must be sought and acted upon. Once all these attempts are tried, and knowledge gained acted upon, there can be no question that the side that wants to save the marriage has the overwhelming advantage.

How Is It Possible To Save Such A Marriage

To begin with, .500 would be an incredible batting average in baseball. It is pretty good for starters in a marriage also. Yes, one person is not cooperative, but the other is trying to make good use of the ways to save a marriage. That’s half the partnership working constructively. That’s a 50% share in power. This constructive half has just as much a share of power in this marriage as the uncooperative half. That’s .500!

Another reason is that the unwilling spouse may just be tangled in a web of emotions, highlighted by confusion of what to do, and also a lack of conviction to end the marriage. He or she may not really know the course of action to take and as a result remain neutral in their actions toward saving the marriage. All this is going on while the other mate is taking positive, constructive steps in the right direction to win the other party over to the right side.

A look at marital history suggests that the spouse that wants to make the marriage work usually wins out in the end. If you go back years, months, or just weeks, there was a time when these people felt enough about each other to get married. That time can be recaptured.

You may think the odds of a reconciliation are overwhelmingly negative, but don’t. There is sufficient hope to be positive. There will always be ways to repair a marriage in trouble. It doesn’t matter if the marriage is just going through some hard times, (we all do in our lives), or is truly on the brink of collapse, there is that hope that it can work out as long as one of the couples has the will and resolve to do the required fixing.
