How
To Save Your Horribly Fractured Marriage
A
marriage that you may deem horribly fractured may be repaired
by simply doing a little mending to a broken
heart that’s hurt and lonely. Often times, a few minor things
that go wrong in a relationship can fester into one big sore
that only a doctor can remove. Never underestimate the effect
little thoughtless acts can have on a marriage whether newlyweds
or mature couples.
Any marriage can get caught up in the day to day pressures
of family and trying to make a living as you neglect the one
person who’s vitally important; and that’s your spouse. Without
him or her, excluding children of course, all the work and
planning would be worth nothing. A fractured marriage may just
require a little attention.
Spend
quality time with each other. It’s easy to think you
do but keep an honest record of the actual time you’re with
your spouse and how much time you spend with friends, children,
work and doing household chores. You may be surprised to find
how little time you spend with your spouse, leaving one or
both feeling badly neglected and unloved.
If too much of your time is being spent with friends and volunteer
work, learn how to say no. Change these habits to being together
with friends or volunteer to work on the same project together.
Common goals create common interests which help a relationship
bond.
Connect
with each other every day with something meaningful and
personal. Simple pleasures are often best such as a walk
in the park. Take time to sip on wine while listening to music
together, go to a movie or concert, dress up and treat it like
a date. Exercise together or ride a bike. With some of these
things you gain health benefits along with emotional.
You
must talk with each other and communicate. Describe your
feelings on a regular basis. Be descriptive and creative in
your descriptions. Focus on your feelings rather than your
thoughts and be honest. Share your good feelings along with
the bad. If you’re apart, then send emails with your feelings.
It may be easier to write them than say them.
When talking, give each other your undivided attention. Don’t
watch TV or glance at a magazine while talking. Respond without
being critical. Make eye contact. Hold hands. Smile and be
supportive even if you don’t agree with everything being
said.
Bring
romance back into your life. Hug often and touch each
other even if just in passing. As the old song goes, “Give
me your hand when I cross the street, say I look nice when
I’m not.” Yes, little things can mean a lot when it comes to
healing a lonely heart. Tell your spouse you love him or her
and think of different ways to say it, perhaps in a foreign
language.
If your marriage has become boring and routine, be
more spontaneous.
Take a trip on the spur of the moment or at least drive to
a nearby town to a romantic restaurant and sneak a kiss when
no one is looking. Saving a fractured marriage can be as easy
as getting out of your own little world and becoming a part
of theirs. Click
