FAQ on Saving a Relationship

If you are concerned that your relationship is ripping at the seams and you guys might split up, than you should continue reading some of my personal answers to common questions asked about saving a relationship.

Q: Where do I start to save my relationship?

A: The first thing you need to do is to confirm to yourself that this relationship is worth saving. It depends on your situation but most relationships breaking up has both or one of the parties involved taking the relationship for granted. Your relationship might start to fray when you start to neglect any form of affection.

Q: How can I mend my troubled relationship.

A: Blaming your boyfriend isn't going to alleviate the situation. Understanding that you control your own actions can help you save your relationship. This may not be easy, but ask yourself some difficult questions. What have you done to damage your relationship? Start improving your relationship by improving yourself. You can't expect anyone other than yourself to change .

Q: What can I do to change my boyfriend?

A: From what you've read earlier, you can't expect anyone to change for you. Your love should be unconditional. People these days believe that everything should be split in half to be fair. Equally dividing the chores, planning dates, money, and whatever else. This would be ideal in a business relationship but could be really hurtful to a romantic relationship. When it comes to saving a strained relationship, you need to give unconditional love even if he does or doesn't do.

Q: What can I do to reverse the hurt and pain done to our relationship?

A: If you already know what you've done to damage your relationship, then you should already know what not to do. You need to watch what you can say or do to cause a fight and stop yourself from doing those things. With practice, it will be easier to catch yourself before you do something that can damage your relationship more. When you catch yourself, ask yourself if what your about to say is worth another fight or even breaking up. If it's not worth it, then just let it go.

Q: How else can I fix our broken relationship?

A: Let your partner know that you are willing to do what it takes to help save your relationship. Be honest with your feelings and just tell him you are sorry for what you have contributed to the current situation. Don't be try to explain your actions or be arrogant about it. Get ready for whatever may happen and be honest with your feelings. Make sure he knows you are doing you best to repair the situation because you love him. He might also say he is sorry but that is not the point. He will believe you are taking things seriously if you are apologetic and show him you are willing to do anything to save this relationship.

It may take some time to fix things and learn to do and say things differently. If both of you are willing to commit to each other by being honest and open, than improving this relationship will come naturally.
