Listen to your spouse. If you can’t, try to collect the hints he or she might have dropped

According to research, often when one partner decides to leave, it is not a sudden decision. You might have hurt him or her for a long time, even without you realizing it.

Now is time for you to examine the situation. Did you spouse try to tell you to change anything? What has your spouse been trying to tell you but you (maybe) never listened? If you have a chance, talk to him or her, and LISTEN CAREFULLY. If your spouse still wants to tell you about the matters, you are considered lucky. Even if your partner doesn’t want to talk, I suppose that he or she might have dropped the hints. Make a list of all the things you think might be the reason why your spouse decided to leave.

 

If you have a conversation with your spouse, eliminate all the toxic words and behaviors

Were all the conversations with your partner filled with blaming, shaming, and yelling? Love cannot grow in such a toxic ground. If you show your partner all the negative emotions too often, he or she will soon feel like the affection and trust slowly fade away.

Instead of using the phrase “You are always…” and put all the blame on your spouse, focus on how you feel toward his or her actions by saying “I felt… when…” And instead of complaining, just ask. For example, you can ask for your spouse’s love and affection, which is much better than focus on how he or she has been ignoring you.

 

Figure out what your spouse needs

 

 

Do you really know what your partner needs? There are things he or she will make it clear with you, but don’t think they are everything. Usually, some matters will be left unspoken, and all you have to do is figuring them out. If your partner needs respect, let he or she feel respected. Provided that your partner wants to be valued, you can find ways to make him or her feel treasured, even in the middle of the separation.

 

Reflect and resurrect the things that make your partner fell for you

A few years ago, or even ten, twenty years ago, what traits of you that made your partner fell madly in love? Try to find back those qualities. If you manage to resurrect the feelings your spouse had for you, chances are he or she will fall for you again. After all, you managed to make your spouse’s heart melt once, right?

 

This is a quick guide that you can do immediately to prevent your marriage from falling apart. You can consider it a path for you to walk if you don’t know what to do yet. Remember, act fast, but don’t be reckless. We know how panic you are now, but this is a very important point where it requires you not to make any wrong move.
