There are no magic ways to repair a couple on the verge of breaking up.
The only correct way to help is being real and showing true love and respect. Trying to take one of these elements out of the picture will only end in disaster. If you are in a relationship now that is a little rocky, the following suggestions will be a great help in bringing things back to normal.
First be real about your expectations.
One way some relations falter is they have lost their romance. The emotions once felt at the start of a relationship have gone by the wayside. Now it has been replaced with a period much quieter and maybe a little boring at times. The daily routine of everyday life can begin to take it's toll on the relationship. The thing to remember is that the momentum at the beginning can not go on forever. The hope is that those feelings will translate into a more deeper and longer lasting form of love.
Remember the best ways to make your relationship work.
Be sympathetic and honest with each other and remember we all make mistakes. Listen to what other person has to say. Don't complain about the other person and share your true concerns with each other. Keeping them to yourself will only cause a big problem later. Understand that you are both not perfect people. Accept each others imperfections and try to build on them. Show each other that you admit to being imperfect yourself and are willing to accept your partner understanding that.
One of the better practices of "the rescue relation" therapists is to propose that a couple may want to take a break from each other. If things do not seem to be making progress, perhaps not talking about everything for a while would be a good idea. Let things cool down just a bit and give the spirit a chance to clear the air of all the tension.
Be grateful for each other every day, trying to live your life the best way yu can. Be there for each other every day, and be especially understanding if things are not going so well. Making a relationship function should not be full of hardship and tension. There can be happiness also. try not to forget how things were when you first met and the love you shared. Start doing things that brought you both much happiness back at the beginning of your relationship.
It is true that not all tips to rescue relationships work for all people. But the answers you seek may just be there waiting for you to try them. Once things begin to change for the better, try to remember how to keep them from going wrong again.
