Introduction
Remember your wedding day? I’m not talking about just the ceremony and reception. I want you to remember how you felt. Think back to looking into the eyes of your intended spouse and how happy you were. Your marriage was going to last forever. You were sure of that much.
Because this man or woman made you feel so special. Maybe your new husband was the most romantic guy you had ever met. Maybe your new wife was one of the most incredible people you had ever met. Both of you knew that this was a marriage that would work. Your life would always be as magical as it was in the very beginning.
You spent the first few months of your life settling in as a married couple. Perhaps you couldn’t keep your hands off of each other and made those around you roll their eyes as they watched your PDA with envy. But you didn’t care – you were in love!
And then, reality sets in. You start to notice little things about your true love that drive you crazy. You think you can deal with it, and maybe you can for a while. But then, you start to pull away just a little bit. You still love him or her, but it’s just not the same.
You start to take each other for granted. After all, you’re married – that’s part of married life, isn’t it? Then you wake up one morning and look over at your love. You wonder what happened to that fire – that amazing desire that couldn’t be controlled. Why don’t you feel like you did on your honeymoon?
Romance dies, that's a fact, right? When you find the love of your life, you'll both settle into a daily routine of financial, household, and child-rearing responsibilities, forgetting you are a couple, right? Romance will only last through the initial crush of the relationship. After that you and your partner will start taking each other for granted, right?
It does not have to be this way. There are many relationships where romance is alive and well. Open up your local paper and look for the anniversary announcements. It can actually be very motivating to see those couples who are celebrating their 25th, 30th, even 50th wedding anniversaries.
In case you think this is a trivial subject, please know romance matters to the health and well-being of your relationship. Being romantic is nothing more or less than appreciating and celebrating your partner.
This means if romance dies, one or both people in the relationship will begin to feel unappreciated. For many, this can be the beginning of the end of the relationship, or perhaps the beginning of an affair.
Is it just a part of life? Do you let that fire die into just a smoldering pile of ashes? You don’t have to! In fact, there is no reason at all why you can’t get back what you had when you were newlyweds. It just takes a little effort.
There are millions of married couples out there who know what it takes to stay in love and keep their marriage fresh and new. Want to know their secrets? No problem!
Keeping romance alive and well in your marriage can be achieved, but it does take work. Anything in life that is truly good and satisfying takes work. However, the rewards are HUGE, so it’s well worth the effort! We’re here to show you how to Bring Your Marriage Back to Newlyweds Again!
Chapter 1
Why Do Marriages Fail?
No one gets married expecting to get divorced. Why bother in the first place? We are filled with hope when we say I Do
to that other person. But the cold reality is that, the divorce rate worldwide is ridiculously high and is rising every day.
There was once a time when people got married and it stuck. In fact, many times, these people got married after knowing each other for only a short time. They didn’t live together first. They never got intimate just to test the waters
. They dove in head first and were determined to make it last. But then times changed. What brought it about? Speculation abounds when it comes to this question. Many people think it was the women’s rights movement in the 70’s.
Others believe that it came about with the advent of more media outlets and the portrayal of sexier, promiscuous characters. Still others say it’s because people just aren’t as committed as they once were because of the instant gratification that we expect even to this day.
Whatever the reason, the divorce rate has raised alarmingly over the past few decades. Roughly HALF of all people who get married will get
