Marriages are man-made institutions that need a lot of work and efforts from both partners to work successfully. Men who feel their marriage is on the brink and has hit rock bottom, ought to refer to this list that could prove to be useful in saving the marriage.

Communication is the key in every relationship. Husbands and wives tend to assume and start taking each other for granted after some time. This is not a sign of a healthy marriage, so make sure you communicate daily with each other and make yourself open enough for her to discuss whatever is bothering her.

2. Make a list of things you don’t like

3. Adjust and compromise

Marriages are all about compromising for the one you love. Are you getting too self centered and rigid in your ways? Compare the compromises you and your wife have done. Adjust a little more for her happiness, for that’s what love and stability is all about.

4. Think about your courtship days

Reminiscing about your courtship days when you both were young and full of fun should definitely warm your heart enough to save the marriage. Think about how much effort has gone into the marriage and how precious she is to you. Encourage her to do the same.
