SAVE MY MARRIAGE TODAY! SOCIAL POSTS FOR AFFILIATES Replace {{AFFILIATE_LINK}} and {{FREE_COURSE_LINK}} with your own HopLinks, and each [square-bracket] line with a sentence of your own. --- Facebook, post (Mistakes) --- #ad When a husband or wife says the marriage is over, the first words out of the other person's mouth are usually the ones that do the most damage. Save My Marriage Today!, a course by relationship writer Amy Waterman, lists begging for forgiveness among the seven most common mistakes in a marriage crisis. The spouse who wants out has been unhappy for a long time. Then, within hours, they hear promises to change from someone who can't yet say what went wrong. The course asks you to listen first and understand your own part in the problem, and it says that, over time, your actions will rebuild trust.

Facebook groups often ban links in posts, so in a group put the link in the first comment only if the group's rules allow it. --- Facebook, post (Love Bank) --- #ad Every kind thing you do for your spouse can be cancelled by one sentence afterwards. Save My Marriage Today! describes a Love Bank in every marriage. Loving acts and words make deposits, and hurtful ones make withdrawals. The book says that if you resent the giving, or add "Now you have to do this for me," the deposit is null and void. Steven B. from Virginia wrote after reading it: "I like the chapter on the Love Bank, its a brilliant concept."

If you've heard those words, you know how final they sound. Save My Marriage Today! calls it one of the most over-used phrases in marriage breakups. The "in love" rush at the start of a relationship fades, the book says, anywhere from six months to the first two or three years. When a spouse says it's gone, the book describes it as a transition, the point where both of you are being called to a deeper kind of love. The course has a whole chapter on getting your spouse to fall back in love with you.

She couldn't eat or sleep. She phoned her best friend in tears, and that friend was relationship writer Amy Waterman. Amy took her under her wing and taught her everything she knew about saving a marriage. Jane stopped begging, blaming and playing the victim. Some of the steps Amy gave her seemed counter-intuitive at first. A few months later, Jane and her husband came to Amy's party hand in hand, "like a honeymoon couple".
