My Wife Cheated on Me - Should I Still Love Her?

Friday, January 30th, 2009

Being cheated on is one of the worst things (if not the worst thing) a partner can do, especially two loving partners. Why would your wife risk a loving relationship? There is no easy answer or quick fix to a problem like this, so don’t burden yourself with trying to come up with one.

The fact is more relationships deal with some form of cheating than relationships that don’t. Of course, we never think that our relationship would ever come to that, but the statistics show, sooner or later, it likely will.

Should you get over it? How do you get over it?

If you and your partner just don’t love each other anymore, then no, you should both go your separate ways. However, if you love you wife and she loves you, then yes, without any doubt you should try to get over it. But how can you do that?

Getting over the fact that your wife cheated on you will take time. You need to accept that right from the get go. Your wife may have cheated on you for no good reason other than “it was a mistake”. If this is the case, she’ll have to prove her loyalty and earn her trust back, and that will take time.

However, you and your wife may have drifted apart in some aspect. She may feel lacking in attention or emotional support, granted that is not a good excuse, but it is a popular reason why people cheat. They simply try to fill the void elsewhere. But don’t worry these things can be fixed.

Communication is the key to a long lasting and fulfilling relationship. Not the normal chit-chat, but the deep conversations where each partner tells the other how they feel. Desires are communicated. Fears are communicated. Common needs are communicated. And action must be taken on these exchanges.

Setting aside weekly “deep communication” sessions with your partner will definitely go a long way in making sure each other’s needs are met, or at least known. This is a very good practice to strengthen the bond with your partner.

So are you stupid for loving someone that cheated on you? Of course not. Loving your wife that cheated on you isn’t a stupid thing. True love is worth the trouble.

Want some simple techniques that will take your relationship with your wife to the next level? My ex walked out on me and I used some amazing methods to get her back… now our love is stronger than ever!

3 Questions to Ask Before Ending a Relationship

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

There are times when good relationships must come to an end. You did everything you can do and the situation is just not going to recover. Ending relationships are hard to do, but they are a fact of life. On the other hand, there are times when good relationships come to an end prematurely. These are the truly unfortunate instances.

What makes a relationship come to an end prematurely? Typically, two loving and mostly happy couples let little things get between them and they’re just not familiar with how to resolve these things.

If you find you’re part of a relationship that is heading toward an end, ask yourself the following questions:

1) Have you both fully discussed the issues that are tearing you both apart?

I’m not talking about some basic chit-chat. I’m talking about sitting down privately and focusing on what the issues are, and working together to try and find a workable solution for both of you.

2) Are you still in love with your partner?

If you’re not in love, you’re not in love. However, you should know that every relationship has its good moments and its not-so-great moments. Simply because you’ve had some bad times doesn’t necessarily mean you stop loving one another. It means you need to start communicating more.

3) Does your partner tend (or try to tend) to your physical and emotional needs?

If not, guess what? You’re probably in a normal relationship. It’s unfortunate, but for most couples the fire that was once there simply fades to a certain degree over time. Again, communication is the key to any successful relationship and it will do wonders for your physical and emotional needs as well.

Now, if you answered yes to number 1, and you truly believe it, then that’s a bad sign. Because it indicates that you both know what really bothers the other person and neither of you were satisfied with your team effort on how to resolve it. However, there is still hope, especially if you’re still in love with your partner. You can always find great help on how to give-and-take from one another. I’ll talk more about that in a moment.

If you answered no to number 2, then it’s probably over, sadly. A relationship needs love to survive, happily.

If you answered no to number 3, then it’s probably time that you and your partner got some relationship help. Don’t fear, even the closest relationships need some help from time to time. The sad part is when they don’t take it.

As long as you love your partner, and your partner loves you, then you both owe it to each other to seek a helping hand from someone that specializes in bringing couples together and finding common ground.

I was in this same situation myself. In fact, my partner left me. After a few months of devastation and searching on the Internet for a reason for her leaving, I found some outstanding techniques to really take our relationship to the next level. I even wrote an eBook to help others in my situation. You can download my Rekindle the Love eBook here for free.

Breaking Up Hurt Like Hell, So Should We Try Again?

Tuesday, January 27th, 2009

Let’s face it, breaking up with someone you’ve been with for a decent amount of time is going to have some degree of hurt that will come along with it. There is just no easy way to get around it. In fact, they say breaking out of a serious relationship can bring more physically pain than a broken limb. I certainly have experienced this pain. It just cuts like a knife.

They also say the only way to combat this pain is through the passing of time. I would agree with this. Time will always ease the pain, it may not ease your love for your partner, but it will become easier to function as time passes. Sometimes that’s just all you can do - count on time to kick in.

It should also be noted that not all break ups need to be final. Sometimes two people in love with one another find themselves not seeing eye-to-eye over petty things that they really don’t mean anything, yet they continue to put a strain on the relationship. In these cases it seems like the lines of communication just break down and one person becomes fed up and decides it’s over, maybe after a heated argument.

These are really unfortunate situations. Typically you’ll end up with two hard-headed individuals going through hell because of it. Both too stubburn to give the other a call and talk things through. For some reason, as time goes by, it gets harder and harder to try to make the next step to reconcile.

How-to Win Your Ex Back When They Push You Away

Sunday, January 25th, 2009

Alright, let me just say upfront that not all ex partners want the other back. If you know your partner doesn’t have feelings for you, it doesn’t matter what you get them, it won’t be worth your time or theirs in trying to make the relationship work. Move on. It will hurt, but move on and find yourself a mutually loving partner.

On the other hand, there are those situations where you may hear the couple say something like “we’re in love with each other, but he/she just drives me nuts”. Well, more times than not, there’s a communication break down happening here. This is a very common relationship problem and very easy to resolve with a little effort and a little reading.

Unfortunately, in these types of situations, flowers by themselves won’t get you very far.

You see, someone can only be “driven nuts” for so long before they take action. More times than not, it’s the wrong action - they break off the relationship - they leave. They’re still in love, but they had to get away, so they thought. Unfortunately, now they find themselves completely lonely and miserable because they miss the other person. Yes, this is a vicious cycle. Ever hear the phrase “can’t live with them, can’t live without them”?

Sadly, some of these break ups are permanent. All because no one ever took the initiative to try to make things work, to try and identify the sticking points (reasons they’re driving the other nuts). Sometimes this takes some outside help. I was in this very situation and won my ex back with some very simple relationship building methods. I even wrote an eBook to help others in my situation.

Communication Problems in Relationships Tear Apart Happiness

Sunday, January 25th, 2009

One of the biggest problems any loving relationship faces is communication problems - serious talking to one another. Communication problems in a relationship can drive a serious wedge in you and your partner’s happiness and eventually lead to separation or an unfulfilling love life. Don’t worry, however, this is something that can be corrected.

Let’s examine communication problems. What is it?

Someone experiencing communication problems with their partner may find that they can talk to their partner about most things just fine and have a wonderful time together. And most observers would never know there was any issue, but there very well could still be communication problems. Just because most things are talked about doesn’t mean the most important things are discussed. It’s the most important stuff that counts, and some people guard that stuff like the Army guards the gold at Fort Knox.

The important things are the things that make us tick. The things that make a relationship happy, sad, funny, etc. The things that one likes their your partner to say or do. The things one likes about thier partner, or even areas that need work. Basically, we’re talking about two people opening up with each other and letting the other person get a glimps of the person they are in love with. Armed with this information, it’s very easy to accommodate to a partner’s desires and needs. This will take a relationship to the next level.

What if there is no communication?

Then time must be made for it. Plain and simple. Sure, this may take some coaxing for the most heavily guarded partners, but even they open up and sing like a bird with a little help. If you find that your partner falls into this category, then you need to sit down with your partner and develop a schedule to spend a little time each day or week with your paretner just discussing the deep stuff. You can even make a game out of it - see who can surprise the other more. It can actually be a fun time! Belive me, I know.

Lack of communication drove my partner to leave me. I was devastated because I love her with all my heart. This love drove me to make some changes and I eventually won her back using some very simple techniques that allowed us to really open up to each other. I count my blessings each day that I’m with her.

I even wrote an eBook to help others (men or women) in my situation. You can download my Rekindle the Love eBook here for free.
