Okay so you and your spouse are not happy together. In fact, if you are willing to be honest with yourself and honest with your spouse, the two of you have been unhappy together for a long time. At this point in time, you fear that divorce is inevitable, but before you take the initial steps toward divorce, pause for a second and ask yourself, am I really ready to let go of this marriage?...

Okay so you and your spouse are not happy together. In fact,Oklahoma City Divorce - How To Revive Your Marriage Articles if you are willing to be honest with yourself and honest with your spouse, the two of you have been unhappy together for a long time. At this point in time, you fear that divorce is inevitable, but before you take the initial steps toward divorce, pause for a second and ask yourself, am I really ready to let go of this marriage? Am I really ready to move forward with a divorce? If your answer is not 100% absolute yes, then your answer is no. If your answer is no, then take a look at the information below. The information below contains our four tips for reviving your marriage:

Tip #1 – Step Back And Accurately Assess Your Relationship Issues.  The first thing you must do is step back and accurately assess the weaknesses of your marriage.  Your analysis does not have to be in depth, but it does have to be accurate.  Once you have assessed the issues, discuss them with your spouse.  After you have discussed the issues with your spouse, go one step further and discuss possible solutions together.

Tip #2 – Make A Change.  If you and your spouse are unhappy together, then it is time for each of you to make a change.  Hopefully, the changes will not have to be drastic (for example, either you or your spouse having to quit your job), but that being said, if drastic changes are required in order to revive your marriage then the question becomes ‘How committed are you?’

Tip #3 – Set Some Time Aside For Each Other.  You would be amazed at the number of couples who are unhappy together not because they are unhappy together, but because they barely even know each other.  When a couple is young, it is typically easy for them to spend time together, but as one of the spouses rises to the top in their career and as the children come along, the husband and wife get bogged down in the daily routine of just tending to the necessities of life.  Again, just to recap, set some time aside for each other.

Tip #4 – Attend Sessions With A Qualified, Reputable Marriage Counselor.  Note the terms ‘qualified’ and ‘reputable’.  Unfortunately, there are a lot of individuals who hold themselves out to the public as being ‘marriage counselors’ who have zero professional training and who have been divorced multiple times.  Do not misinterpret what is being said here though, we strongly recommend marriage counseling…it can be very effective, but if you do choose to pursue the route of marriage counseling, make sure that you do some necessary research up front.
