Divorce is an unneccessary and painful option that can be avoided.
Cope With The Immediate
The first step in the process of healing a marriage after a break-up is almost always a surprise to many couples but it is crucial.- What you need to do more than anything else right now? You need to create a little emotional distance. Any interaction between you and your partner at this point is guaranteed to be driven by intense emotion. Not so good. Emotions are too raw and not much can be accomplished.
- Why do you and your partner need time away from each other?
You both need time to regroup. Try to think of it as a preventative measure to preserve whatever good feelings remain between the two of you. This period after a break-up can safely be described as a time of temporary insanity for many. We have all experienced it at some point in our lives. Your behavior can be unpredictable and uncharacteristic. Attempting to reconcile your relationship right now will only lead to more of the same unwanted results.
Take The Time To Heal Yourself
Utilize the time apart to heal your wounds and revitalize yourself. When the time comes for you to reconnect you want to bring the very best of yourself back to your marriage. Your spouse will find you much more appealing.
Here's what you can do:
If you can do these things while you are apart, you will return to your marriage with a renewed sense of yourself and a better understanding of your relationship. You will be that much more prepared to restore your relationship and rescue your broken marriage from divorce.
Here's what you can do:
- Work on improving your personal well-being - focus on your physical, emotional, social, or professional health.
- Do not isolate yourself - participate in life outside of your marriage, maintain relationships with friends and family members, reconnect with old friends, attend social events, begin playing your favorite sport again, take a class, etc...
- Take an inventory of your marriage - make a list. What patterns do you see, what do you regret, how would you like your relationship to be, what can you do differently?

Heal Your Spouse By Reconnecting
When you feel that you were successful in restoring your own emotional balance, it is time to attempt to reconnect with your spouse. This will not be nearly as difficult as you are imagining. You will be surprised at the kind of response you will receive from the smallest gesture on your part.Three things to remember:
- The goal is to reconnect so keep it lighthearted and have some fun. This is your time to remind your spouse why they fell in love with you the first time. Use this time to rekindle feelings of the initial attraction between the two of you.
- It's too early to resolve any major problems. So just have a good time. The atmosphere should be carefree and cheerful. Enjoy the casual intimacy.
- Keep in mind, your spouse is wounded too. Show some kindness and let your spouse know that you care and your intentions are genuine.
You can begin by scheduling a regular time to get together - something planned and concrete that you can both expect and look forward to.
Here are some ways to reconnect:
- schedule a date night
- take a day trip
- work on a project together
- take a class together
- exercise together
- volunteer together
- go for a walk, hike, jog, bike ride
- play a sport together
- take turns deciding what to do
Do the things that you enjoyed doing together before you were married
and try new things as well.
Remember: Your goal is to remind yourselves that things can be easy and effortless between you, not always painful and difficult. Strive to create hope that you can heal what is broken your marriage.
Focus On Solutions, Not Problems
Once you have reconnected on better terms, you need to focus on how to fix what is NOT working in your marriage and nurture what IS working for you. You can maintain your new-found connection by identifying the core problems in your marriage and learning how to solve them.
When it comes to problem-solving, most people benefit from having a list of things to focus on and keep in mind as they are working. I'm going to give you a list of suggestions and later you can create your own list of the things that you think need to be repaired in your marriage.
Problem Solving Techniques:
Try to keep in mind that healing your marriage will be an ongoing process. Sometimes you are going to take two steps forward only to take one step back. You are going to experience both laughter and tears as you go foward. Be quick to apologize and slow to blame. Keep your eye on the prize and remember how lucky you are to have each other.

Problem Solving Techniques:
- When trying to solve the problems in your marriage, try not to jump back into the fire of conflict. When emotions flare up (and they will), don't be fooled by the intsensity. A lot of that anger is really hurt in disguise.
- Try to separate your emotions about the problem from the steps you need to take to solve the problem itself - this is a hard thing to do and it will take some effort.
- Many couples have unrealistic expectations about marriage and relationships. Be flexible, learn how to bend in your relationship. Try to recognize what is important to solving a problem and let the other things go.
- Listen AND verbalize. These are equally important. Couples have a tendency to do one or the other, but not both at the same time. Not only do you need to hear what your partners concerns are but the opposite is true as well.
- When solving a problem, think of yourselves as teammates, not opponents. You should be working together to solve a problem for the benefit of BOTH of you.
- When you are trying to identify the problems in your marriage, it's important to distinguish between the symtoms of a problem and the core problem itself. One of the biggest problems in relationships is that couples get the symptoms of the problem confused with the problem itself. Your goal is to work on the core problem and let the symptoms become a part of the past.
- Most importantly: start small. It's just not possible to repair everything at once. You will have the most success if you take it one step at a time. Start with something that will be the easiest to fix and go from there.
Try to keep in mind that healing your marriage will be an ongoing process. Sometimes you are going to take two steps forward only to take one step back. You are going to experience both laughter and tears as you go foward. Be quick to apologize and slow to blame. Keep your eye on the prize and remember how lucky you are to have each other.
