Yes, even broken marriages can be fixed. Just like anything else, there IS a way to fix your problems, and you will find that you can have a happy marriage again, even if you think that's not possible at the moment. Here are some tips to help you save a broken marriage.

You are responsible for your own actions only - you cannot be held responsible for your spouse's actions. What you CAN be held responsible for, however, is how you decide to deal with your spouse's actions or behavior.

If your spouse had a bad day, and decides to take it out on you, you have to remind yourself that it's not your fault. You didn't make their day bad, they just had a bad day. If this happens, you can turn it around - you can be sympathetic towards them, and listen.

Sometimes all people need is for someone to listen to them. To get those feelings out, and have someone not judge them for it. As a married couple, to save a broken marriage, the two of you should be able to lean on each other. Sometimes it's hard to take, but when you do, you will feel closer to your spouse by sharing your worries and concerns.

You can also feel happier in your marriage by being positive. This may sound hard to do, but it's not. If you smile more, you will start to feel better. You may have to force yourself to smile at first, but after a few times of doing so, you will find yourself smiling all the time.

If a negative thought comes into your mind, turn it into a positive thought. If you are worried about bills, for example, instead of thinking that you are drowning in debt, turn that thinking around to say that you may not be financially stable right now, but you will be able to come out of that debt one day.

By adopting positive behaviors, you will start to change the emotions in your marriage, and will be able to save a broken marriage. The more negativeness that is brought into your marriage, the worse it is going to get. When you start to bring positive into your marriage, even a little at a time, you will see that your broken marriage starts to get fixed.

When you talk to your spouse, try to stay calm and as upbeat as you can. Think about it - if someone starts a conversation with you on a sour note, such as complaining about something you did, you're going to feel the need to retaliate, aren't you?

If that person were to come to you and calmly talk about their complaint, in a lighter tone, you will be more apt to listen to them and talk about how to fix the problem.

This is the same in marriage - maybe more so, because the two of you are probably complaining about things all of the time.

When you start changing the way that you talk to your spouse, you will se that your spouse will change the way they talk to you.

That doesn't take long to do, either. Once you start, it gets easier and easier, and you will be well on your way to saving a broken marriage.
