Is Your Marriage Failing
Common Marriage Problems
The warning signs of a failing marriage will vary for many of us. But there are some very common similarities that take place as your marriage begins to fail. Obvious signals include constant arguing, feelings of doubt, mistrust, sadness and inability to communicate.If you feel unloved an insecure about your relationship and have experienced some, or all of these common signs, don't worry because there is hope. All you have to do is take some action and save your marriage.
Arguing and failing to communicate can be a death sentence for any marriage. Many times communication is the first thing to go. No one wants to argue constantly, so to avoid an argument, many times we just stop talking altogether.
This of course leads to greater separation which only worsens the problem. Avoid this common dilemma and learn to talk to each other again with love, dignity and respect.
Learning to effectively communicate with your spouse and finally resolve your differences will enable you to avoid a failed christian marriage.
You just have to make the decision to restore your marriage.
Marriage And Communication
Talk to me
Everyone wants to enjoy a happy healthy marriage and feel loved, respected and appreciated. If your marriage is on the rocks then there are some steps you can take to restore your marriage.Since communication is a major factor which contributes to a high percentage of divorces, let's focus for a moment on some things we can do which will enable us to communicate more effectively.
Communication involves active listening in an orderly exchange of concerns between one another, and not simply spouting out your concerns. Place yourself in your partner's shoes as you communicate.
Listen first, then respond in love, not emotional anger. Being argumentative is a sure way to shut down a conversation fast, no one wants to feel like their being attacked.
Solving a particular issue can be tricky but it's possible to come to an understanding on any one topic. One thing you can do is pick an issue and resolve it. That's right, just resolve it. Think about it, God has resolved and reconciles us to Him; we are called to do the same.
When you do settle an issue, remember to leave the issue at rest and don't resurrect it at a later date and use it as a verbal weapon, it will become a wedge issue and further divide you from the person you love. It really is all about forgiveness.
Hold on strong to your faith and realize that you can restore your marriage, and with Gods help it will be lasting. Understanding that your marriage is having problems, and truly wanting to salvage and restore your relationship, is part of the battle.
Praying is the first step and deciding to take action is the next step in saving a failed christian marriage

Don't forget that God placed you together in the first place. Stay focused on His purpose for your marriage and you will be able to work through your issues.

- I have a wife whom speaks to me disrespectfully and condecendingly all the time, she has a constant second guessing attitudde towards me. When I bring things up that are to do with our kids or other matters, the first thing she always says is "when were you going to tell me that"
When ever I bring things up (its very infrequently these days cause why would I line up for another shilacking) she gets frustrated and says I should have told her earlier! It seems I am really bad for her, she gets so frustrated with me and has done for many years we have been married 24 years, I am unhappy and have no peace in my life, i feel so drained out by living with her. What do I do, I really feel i want to take a new start which would at least after some adjustment give me peace. I love my 3 kids (15 girl, 18 and 20 boys) and would miss them greatly, but I am just so empty.
Please give me some guidance.

- well im not a professional but i have been married for 27 years and biggest advice i can give anyone is to do one thing........... communicate. theres really no way around this. you absolutely must sit down with your partner and address one issue at a time. just one; come to a compromise, settle it, then move on to the next issue. it's so basic and straightforward its often times overlooked.

- The greatest barrier in our marriage has been his mistrust of me. Not because of anything I've ever done in our marriage though. He holds my past against me (though mine pales in comparison to his) and is constantly accusing me of committing adultery or thinking about it. For four years I've tried to prove how much I love him and it never lasts. If I dont conduct myself to his exact liking (the requirements of which would be considered controlling) then I MUST be cheating at best and at worst, Im a disobedient wife. It has definitely cut our communication because I just refuse to listen to his ranting accusations anymore or endure his intimidation when he starts calling family/employer/friends when I wont listen anymore. Is there any coming back from that?
