Healing A Broken Relationship - Do You Have This 1 Ingredient You Need?

Healing a broken relationship is definitely not the easiest thing you will ever do in your life, but with the right guidance it can be done. Various factors will determine just how much of a challenge it is, but without 1 key ingredient that you need it probably will not happen.We will get to that in a minute.First it would be helpful to know why the relationship is in trouble in the first place. Since this is an article and not a chat I will have to take a few guesses but the advice I give you is intended to apply to everyone at least to some degree.One of the more popular reasons a relationship breaks apart is because of infidelity. The culture we live in and the entertainment we watch glorifies and promotes promiscuity even when people are married or in a serious relationship so that should come as no surprise.The task of healing a broken relationship is difficult and how you go about it depends on whether it was you who cheated or your partner. One might think that the one who cheats would be responsible for fixing the damage but it is a little more complicated than that.There can be a little bit of fault on both sides with so many infractions in a marriage or relationship that pinning the blame on one person usually is not quite accurate. Relationships are built on mutual trust and respect and that can be lacking in both directions.Some relationships simply break down over time from "neglect", if you will, where both partners are not working at keeping it strong. Relationships do not survive automatically like an artificial plant in the corner of the living room. They are similar to a live organism and need loving care from both sides.Here is the key ingredient that you needAt the risk of sounding anti-climatic, the key ingredient to healing a broken relationship is the willingness of both spouses or partners to be willing to sit down and honestly, and calmly, discuss what is going on in the relationship. If you cannot communicate then you have serious problem that is difficult to overcome.I do not, by the way, consider arguing and yelling to be communicating.Staying calm and not fighting is tough; it is a battle you wage inside yourself. But you both need to start with the attitude that we are not here to point fingers, place blame or beat up the past.What you do want to discuss with each other is the needs you each have in the relationship and how they are not being met. It helps to provide realistic suggestions as to how that might change.Be willing, however, to be the first one to change. Saying, "I'll change when you do" is not going to cut it. Further, you need to be willing to maintain the change even if your partner does not, or backslides some. Do not fight fire with fire.Think about it for a while and you will see how this strategy is good for YOU regardless of whether your partner cooperates. If in the end you do go your separate ways you will have made yourself a better, stronger, happier person who can look for someone else in life who is at your new level, not at the level of your (at that time) ex.Find out exactly how you can begin healing a broken relationship while taking yourself higher in life and becoming a better person; visit our website and get a specific action plan to follow.Relationship healing is our goal.
