How Can I Stop This Divorce From Happening

Relationships are great and when they turn into marriage it's even better. These days marriages go through a lot of stressful times. My cousin asked me the other day "how can i stop this divorce". He is going through a really bad time. His wife has stopped loving him. She has told him that she wants a divorce. Now they have three children involved in this marriage and it would break his heart to see them not living in the same house as him.

Not only that but he loves his wife and does not want this divorce to go through. So he came to me and asked me if there was anything he could do to make her change her mind. I said i would have to think about it for a few days.

After a few days i meet up with him and this is the advice i told him to put into action:

#1 Get his kids involved.

What i mean by this is asking his kids who are teenagers by the way to talk to their mum and express their disapproval about the divorce. Ask her why she wants to hurtr their father who loves her and hurt them as well.

#2 Think deep as to why she has fallen out of love with him.

Sometimes people may be the cause of their partner wanting to seperate or in worst case senario divorce them. He should sit her down and ask her why. Ask her to tell him honestly and truthfully why she wants to end it all. Is it because she has found someone else. If so what has he got or what is he doing that he cannot do or does not have.

#3 Make her see the effect it will have on the children.

He should pinpoint the fact that the children don't want to come from a broken home. That they love being one close family. He should make it clear to her that she is setting a bad example for their kids. He should point out that statistics show that a high percentage of children from broken homes end up as divorcees themselves. And she would not like that to happen to her children would she?

#4 Tell her that he loves her and prove it.

Maybe he has fallen in his duties as a husband. Maybe he is an alcholic or a wife beater. He should promise to stop all the things that she does not like and change into that man that she once loved and cherished. The question of "how can i stop this divorce" will be answered if he puts these tips to action.
