"I want my marriage back", heard being screamed by those spouses around the world who were cheated by their partners. Sad to say, but much of their cries fell on deaf ears.
The problem is that you and your spouse are the only two people in the world who can make the decision to save your marriage or turn and walk away. But, you turn to everyone else and his or her brother to get advice and guidance about what you should do in this situation.
The following are those that should have been taken instead.
Make Your Decision
Make a decision. "I want my marriage back."
See here, this is the most essential part that you have to do prior anything else. When there is hesitation still on your part and it seems like you have difficulty deciding, then it must really be early to make a decision. However you need to be firm and in control whenever you decide to save your marriage.
Your mother, best buddy, baseball coach or manager can't make this decision for you. They are good source for advice or a shoulder to cry on but definitely not the people who will have to live with the decisions that you will be making.
You are the only one who will be living with the fallout of your decision. So, be sure to make the choice you will be able to live with.
Follow through with Your Decision
This could be difficult on your part. But that certainly does not equate to making the decision of staying or leaving easier, instead it means that it executing the decision made is a lot harder for most people. This is part of the reason that affairs and cheating are devastating to relationships - as there are no easy solutions on either side of the coin.
If you decided to stay, now is when you really have to get busy learning to forgive and move forward. Here's a suggestion though. Instead of working, as you originally thought or wanted in the direction of "I want my marriage back," wouldn't it be better if you instead focused on "I want to make my marriage better"?
You don't want to fall back into the same old relationship that is going to lead right back to where you are now. You want to make things even better this time around. Here are a few qualities you might want to focus on as you work to rebuild your marriage.
Patience
Prioritizing
Patience
Honesty
Intimacy (emotional and physical)
Forgiveness
Conversations
Giggles
Intimacy (emotional and physical)
