How To Save Your Marriage When You Know Something Is Terribly Wrong
Because I’m so vocal about saving marriages, I’ve dialogued with a lot of women whose relationships haven’t yet reached the point of separation or divorce — but they can feel the distance growing. They know something’s off. And they want to stop the unraveling before it goes too far. And that strategy is exactly right.

Getting Your Husband To Love You Like He Used To When You Worry He No Longer Loves You At All
A very common — and heartbreaking — question from wives is this: “How can I get my husband to love me the way he used to?” Sometimes, the spark feels like it’s gone. Other times, he’s emotionally checked out, distant, or maybe you’ve already had serious talks about separating.

Maybe their marriage has been going through a dire rough patch, and their husband has overtly checked out. There’s tons of tension — so much that you could cut it with a knife.

But no matter where you are, the methods for reuniting are the same. Getting back together really requires two things, which you can achieve by taking baby steps until you get the relationship back where you want it. I'll discuss this process in this article.
