Why Do Second Marriages Fail: Why Do Second Marriages End In Divorce If I had to build two garden sheds, both exactly the same, from kits, the pieces pre-cut and shaped, with detailed plans, knowing that I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, I'd probably make a complete pig's ear out of the first one. The second one, however, would probably turn out more or less all right. Why? Because I'd had experience building the first one. But marriage doesn't work out that way. The researchers tell us that 50% of first time marriages will end on the rocks of divorce. That's a pretty shocking statistic, but worse than that is the fact that no less than 60% of second marriages fail. Now, you'd think that people would come away from broken first marriages with a modicum of experience. 'Well, we made this, that and the other mistake the first time. I'll make darn good and sure I don't repeat it.' But of course it doesn't happen like that. When people have been through a bruising divorce battle, they're in no mood to admit that, just perhaps, they should share some of the blame. They've had to fight tooth and nail for the house, the kids, alimony, the possessions in the house, etc., that they're convinced at this stage that their ex-partner must be totally, 100% in the wrong. So the only 'mistake' they come away with from that first union is not to marry anyone like that again. What do I really need to do to make my spouse love me again? Is it possible to build massive attraction in my spouse? To learn the killer, advanced strategies to save your marriage, simply click here! Then they find they've garnered enough from the divorce settlement to be able to go on a cruise. This is splendid, and they meet a Mr./Mrs./Ms Wonderful and immediately fall in love. The dark of the afterdeck, the soft, tropic breeze caressing their cheeks, the white wake like a ribbon of silver trailing out, almost as if they could tread this path of silver to find their fortunes. Oh, those cruises are love traps. By the time they return home, they're hopelessly smitten with each other. What else can they do, but marry? But the cruise, with its magically seductive ways, is no longer there to help them and they must face reality. Actually, they'll probably be fine for the first few years, but they're no longer spring chickens and both are set in their ways. A telling quote comes from William J. Doherty, Ph.D., Director, Marriage and Family Therapy, University of Minnesota. "Partners bring to remarriage the stupidity of the first engagement, and the baggage of the first marriage." One interesting point is that you'd think people who lived together before marriage would have a head start and be that much more ready for a successful union. But no. This isn't the case at all, apparently. People who live together first, have a higher divorce rate than those who don't.

Physical intimacy is important in any marriage, but sometimes couples fail to realize that spiritual intimacy is important as well. Creating intimacy is a goal for any good marriage. Couples who have blissful marriages have discovered a secret, and that secret is that spiritual and physical intimacy, joined together, is an important key to marital bliss. Here are three keys to growing in intimacy: 1. Connect with Your Spouse Connecting with your mate is one of the ways you will grow in intimacy. In order to connect with your spouse, you will have to understand him (or her). You will need to understand and embrace your differences. Men and women even think differently (their brains physically work differently according to much research). A couple will do well to learn how to better to communicate with the opposite sex. Connecting with your spouse is one of three keys to growing in intimacy What if your spouse don't love you anymore? Here's how to get them addicted to you like when you fell in love for the first time 2. Respect Your Spouse Husbands are commanded (in the Bible) to love their wives, and wives are commanded to respect (or an even stronger word, "reverence") their husbands. Now, of course the wife needs to be respected too. That actually is part of the husband's love for her. The wife is to lover her husband too, but the respect part of love is often craved more strongly by the husband than the wife. The bottom line is that both husbands and wives are to respect each other (and to remember that the husband's need for respect is extremely strong). Respecting your spouse is a great way to go about creating intimacy. 3. Trust Your Spouse Nothing can hamper a person's desire to be close to his or her mate than a lack of trust. True, trust must be gained, but at some point it will just have to be given. Trusting your spouse is another way you can go about creating intimacy. When a husband sets up certain policies like striving never to be alone with a woman other than his wife, he sits up certain safeguards and builds the trust of his wife. While it may be a little flattering to see some jealousy in your husband or wife, you do need to guard against that natural feeling from degenerating to an inordinate lack of trust in your mate. Trusting your spouse is another great way to insure that you both are growing in intimacy. So, connecting with your spouse, respecting you spouse, and trusting your spouse are three keys to growing in intimacy, and growing in both spiritual and physical intimacy is a part of one of the amazing secrets of marital bliss.

Follow the information step by step and you will discover the truth, cut through the lies and pain, stop divorce dead in its tracks, and rebuild the strong, intimate marriage you've always wanted... even if your spouse doesn't want to! Save your marriage now and visit Save The Marriage Recognizing the common marriage problem signs can help couples stay together. When you are married, you are inevitably going to notice a shift in the dynamic of the relationship over time. It happens to every couple. Some couples sail through it smoothly while others face challenges. As the relationship changes, the partners also tend to change. If you love your spouse your goal is going to be to keep the marriage alive and thriving. The first step to doing that is to understand what signs indicate something is amiss. What if your spouse already left you? Here's how to get them back. One of the signs of problems in marriage is the couple doesn't share things anymore. At one time they probably couldn't wait to tell each other everything. Over time that can change and instead of openly communicating about everything they don't communicate about anything. If the lines of communication in your marriage have gone silent, you need to change that as soon as possible. Many people will put a barrier up because they don't want to deal with talking about their problems. If that's the case with your spouse, ease into it by talking about everyday things. If they feel comfortable and not threatened they are much more likely to open up about what is troubling them in terms of the marriage. Continuing conflict is another of the marriage problems signs that have to be addressed if you hope to save the relationship. Many couples bicker over things like their children or finances. If these issues are left on the table and the struggle continues, it will lead to resentment that is very difficult to get past. Compromise doesn't always seem possible but if you want to keep your family together it's essential. Work at finding a solution to the problem even if it means you have to give in a little. Once that conflict has been cleared away you may notice the dynamic of the relationship changing again to a much more positive place. Do you want to reawaken a committed and loving relationship in your marriage? There are proven steps that are amazingly powerful that will help you overcome conflicts and breathe life back into your marriage. This is a plan you do not want to pass by. Click here to see the proven steps on how to save your marriage. Are you in the unfortunate position where your marriage appears to be failing and you are scrambling desperately trying to save it? Well, there is one simple concept that you need to learn in order to save your marriage. It is one that I applied to save my marriage, and it is one that will work in your case. The concept dictates that you cannot save a marriage or maintain a healthy union by giving endless self-sacrifice. Now just what does this mean, you may ask? Well, it means that you cannot solve all the problems in your marriage by compromising and sacrificing yourself in all cases. This is really not the best tactic to use if your marriage is already going down hill. Certainly, if you feel you have a stable union, compromise is a good approach. However, if your marriage is really in big trouble, avoid self-sacrificing at all costs. What do I really need to do to make my spouse love me again? Is it possible to build massive attraction in my spouse? To learn the killer, advanced strategies to save your marriage, simply click here! The best analogy I can give for this situation is my own marriage. My spouse came up to me one day and outright announced that he wanted a divorce. Of course, this completely shattered me, causing me to jump into reactive mode by trying to talk him out of it. However, the more begging I did caused me to seem more desperate in the eyes of my husband, and he just started to lose interest in me even worse than before. Because I had not expected that response, I was basically convinced that my marriage was about to end. However, I was fortunate enough to be able to correct my mistakes in good time. The best bit of advice I can give you is to note what I did so you do not make the same mistakes. You should learn to play the game according to the rules and avoid begging at all costs because it just does not work. Allow your spouse to see why they fell in love with you in the first place and see just how much you are worth. Once you display that you can make it without them and be independent, you will see how quickly your spouse will start to gravitate towards you. Remember, people always strive to get things that they can't have. Saying or doing the wrong thing can actually cause your spouse to feel even more distant from you. You can make your spouse fall back in love with you, all over again. You don't have to worry about whether your spouse is on the brink of asking you for a divorce. You can control the situation and use specific techniques to naturally make them fall hopelessly in love with you.
