Hello readers! It’s Dawn again.

Are you looking for some advice on how to stop divorce from happening to your marriage?

Well look no further!

In the past, my husband Brian and I have had some pretty big marriage problems. There were days when I thought things would never get better. I often cried myself to sleep at night.

But things did get better! I was able to save my marriage and now my passion is helping other people save theirs, too. There are many things people will tell you to do when you’re having a marriage problem. But only you know what is right for you. I want to share the things that truly helped my husband and I avoid divorce and have a better marriage. I hope these tips will help you improve your marriage too!

Make a commitment to change

When you face a marriage problem, make a commitment to your spouse that you will change the behaviour or perspective that needs to be changed in order to improve your marriage. Make it clear that you expect the same from them. It can be difficult, but if you both make the commitment, you will have a better marriage.

Learn to forgive

Being able to forgive each other – whether it is something small like forgetting to take out the trash or something big like catching your spouse cheating – is very important. Many marriages cannot survive things like a spouse cheating or lying. However, many couples decide to work through these problems. When attempting to make your marriage work, forgiveness plays a huge role. If you truly love each other and want to improve your marriage, forgive your partner and they will forgive you as well.

Be respectful

Showing respect for one another is a key element in having a better marriage. Take the time to listen to your spouse without interrupting, don’t jump to conclusions, and avoid uncomfortable subjects. Being patient and respectful will improve your marriage in the long run and make your spouse show you respect in return.

We all strive to know how to have a better marriage. No matter how good your marriage is, there is always room for improvement. That is what this e-book is for. It’s a guide to explore how you can improve your marriage and keep it alive. This book explores the different elements of marriage and how you can save your marriage from divorce.

Hey guys and gals! It’s Dawn again, with more advice on how to save a marriage just for you.

This one gets a little more personal. It is my story of how I was able to save my marriage through the use of marriage counselling  –  the ups and downs, what didn’t help, and finally, the secrets using marriage counselling to fix marriage that I discovered (thank goodness!)

Okay, so you’re all familiar with the fact that at one point in the not-so-distant-past, my husband Brian and I were in extreme need of some marriage help in order to have a better marriage and avoid divorce. However, the SPECIFIC reasons of why we needed help to fix our marriage are not so easy for me to discuss.

Well, I knew this time was coming!

(*takes deep breath*)

During our second year of marriage, my husband had what I refer to as an “emotional affair” with a close female friend of his. They never did anything physical, and after a month, he ended it with her and came clean to me. Looking back, I am thankful he was honest with me, but at the time I was completely devastated. I knew it would take me a long time to forgive him.

However, I knew I wanted to save my marriage and I wanted my husband and I to go to marriage counselling together. In my opinion, marriage counselling would likely be the best option if I wanted to learn how to save my marriage to Brian and avoid divorce.

Boy, am I glad we went.

We both learned so much through marriage counselling, too much to even begin to list.

One of the best pieces of advice I can give to any couples who are in need of marriage help and who give marriage counselling a shot, is to LISTEN, both to each other and to the marriage counsellor. While this might not seem like a “secret” to a better marriage, I can’t express how important listening to each other is when it comes to making marriage work. If you are desperate to avoid divorce and are willing to do anything to improve your marriage, don’t interrupt when your spouse is trying to communicate with you. During a marriage counselling session you might get frustrated, defensive, or angry, but take a deep breath and try to relax.

If you are in need of marriage help to avoid divorce, get your spouse to come with you to marriage counselling. Trust me, it can help you with any sort of marriage problem you may have.
