Marriages in trouble usually have one of two things going on. Either something traumatic has happened in the relationship or nothing much has happened at all for a very long time. Either situation can be worked out, and both would benefit from professional help from a qualified marriage and family therapist. With trauma such as infidelity or loss of a family member, remember that people react differently to different triggers and the outcome may not always be what you’d expect. People need time to heal and often seek professional help with processing severe trauma, such as the loss of a child or pregnancy.
What makes you think your marriage need saving? Lack of communication? No connection? No intimacy? Men and women react differently on issues. Perez54 is right about themain reasons a marriage needs a healing - traumatic situation or a flat screen for too long. A good conversation could help but men avoid conversations when they are not ready to talk. Patience is your most powerful weapon in such a situation and Iknowit could be hard butdo your best to sustain the situation and give it time to reveal naturally.
