“Give It To Me Straight, Doc. Can This Be Saved?” #69 Save Your Marriage Podcast


Listen Later

"Can my marriage be saved?"  That question is echoed in email after email, voicemail after voicemail, and conversation after conversation.

"Just give it to me straight," Jerry told me.  He was more direct than others.  "I know you are supposed to say, 'Of course it can,' but do I have a chance?"

To be clear, I am not supposed to say anything.  Most people tell me I can be a bit too direct.  So, I never pad my response.  The problem is, I cannot tell, with 100% accuracy, whether a marriage is going to turn around.

You see, I have no way of predicting whether Jerry will carry through with his plan -- whether he will react, in a moment of weakness, and fall short; or whether he will simply NOT act.

Also, I have no way of predicting how Jerry's spouse will respond to Jerry's plan.

But, as I told Jerry, I do know this:  if he does not act, I can guarantee the marriage will continue to crumble.  And most crumbled marriages end.

There are very few guarantees in life (other than taxes and death).  So, I can't guarantee.

So, how do we raise the odds?  How do we get things moving toward the potential of a saved and restored marriage?

That's my topic in today's podcast.  I offer some reasons why things can be more complicated.  And I give you some direction on how to move forward.

After listening, if you are ready to get started, Here Is My Save The Marriage System.
