Is there hope to save a marriage that is full of despair and turmoil? Well, many times there is. Even though there is no guarantee, there is much that can be done to repair a relationship – even when it seems hopeless.
Marriage may not always be rosy and perfect, but it should take quite a bit to give cause for ending it. More often than not, the things that couples feel are grounds for divorce are actually things that could be worked out if the couple only had the right tools to enact.
Couples should not give up hope as long as they can communicate with each other. When things get bad, pointing out what needs to occur in order to get back on track needs to be a team effort. Having only one person on board will not work. Marriage takes two to work, so when things are askew then it will take both to set it right.
If a couple can talk, they have a chance at anything. When they lose that ability there is very little hope, unless it can be re-established. But in order for that to happen both sides must want to make it work. This, too, requires commitment.
Many times there is a need for counseling, especially if talking cannot be resolved amicably. Bringing in an outside source to mediate is often needed to bring a balance, since the third party won’t be persuaded to choose sides. Bringing a clear perspective to the table also means that it can be seen from the eyes of an outsider, so there is no hidden agenda in any decision that might be rendered.
Counselors are available in any area of the country so it comes down to finding one that both sides are comfortable with. Depending on the issue, it might be decided for them. For example, if a husband has cheated then it might be in the best interest not to choose a woman if the wife is still reeling from the affair. It needs to be a mutual decision as to what is best for the counseling, and not who feels they can get an ally on their side.
So, the question remains: is there hope to save a marriage when it feels like everything is lost? The answer is yes, if both sides want it to be saved.
