Family & Relationships Marriage & Divorce

Divorce, can it be stopped, a marriage saved?

Every day,at one time or another, we hear the happy news. A friend, family member is going to get married. Perhaps you have proposed to your girlfriend, or maybe you are the girlfriend, and your boyfriend is doing the proposing. It is a happy occasion, only outdone by the wedding itself, and then by the honeymoon. Life really couldn't be better. Soon, the happy couple settles into their new life together, maybe the happy news that a young one may be on the way. It is a moment of bliss and joy, one wishes might never go away. But, it usually happens, even begins as you leave on the honeymoon. The whispers, the guessing game, the questions. How long will it last??

Nearly 40% of newlywed couples, who's only dreams of walking off into the sunset hand in hand soon find their marriage in its twilight zone. Thats right. Divorce. It may be an abusive relationship, extra-marital affairs, boredom, simply falling out of love with each other. At any rate, it is always a moment of sadness to see the end of a marriage, whether it be you, or a friend, or a family member. Add in children, and it is even more heartbreaking. Usually the hunt begins for a new partner, lover, husband or wife. The idea is that usually the second time around, one will have been a bit more mature, and therefore, can make a better decision on a partner that they will stick with this time. But it almost never works. Of all the people who are in their second marriage, nearly 60% will end up separating, and divorcing. Third time is not a charm either, as the divorce jumps to almost 73%. It is staggering, but as with everything else, usually there is a trick, or a few to saving a marriage.

So, what is the trick to saving, or rather keeping the love for your partner alive? I believe one must keep an open mind. Alot of us have probably seen the TV series, Everybody Loves Raymond, or Married With Children, and we think, my gosh, I am glad I do not have that kind of relationship!! We see couples who have been married for half a century or more, who seem to have a hate/hate or love/hate relationship with each other, and others who adore each other, but watch them when one gets sick, and the other will never leave their side. For them, true love for each other is the common denominator, and that is what never seems to make its way into todays relationships. But true love is there, and one simply has to know how to access it, to open their hearts to one another, and that is key to saving a marriage.
