The Save The Marriage Podcast

2 Actions that Do More Harm than Good


Listen Later

You know that your marriage is in trouble. Your spouse said so. Maybe it was the “things have to change” speech. Or maybe it was the “I love you, but I’m not in love” speech. Or maybe it was a request to separate or even divorce.
It comes into clear focus. Sure, you knew things weren’t great. But you thought they would improve, that you would find your way back together. Instead, the reality is crashing in.
Your marriage is in trouble.
What do you do? How do you respond?
There are 2 actions that I see over and over again. Both of them, while well intentioned, actually make things worse. Instead of improvement, the crisis only deepens. The chance of recovery only plummets.
And you only wanted to turn things around!
Wrong actions, even with the best of intentions, can cause more damage than good.
I cover the dangerous actions in this week’s Save The Marriage Podcast.  Listen below.
