It is that time of year again where couples are going around and showing their significant other that they are head over heals in love with each other. So what about this time means that you can not do the same. Maybe you and your love one have split up recently. But if you truely love her, this would be a good time to show her just how much you love her. And if she has not moved on yet, then she is giving you the green light that she wants you to fight for her. Below are some ways that you can make her love you again.
1) Send her gifts of love. Sending her flowers, chocolates, or a card will show her that she is on your mind. Women want to know that they are appreciated and loved. Even calling her just to say "hello" is a gift in itself. So take the initiative and show her that you are thinking of her.
2) Write her a poem from the heart. You do not have to be Shakespeare when it comes to communicating your feelings. Just write her a quick 2 paragraph poem or letter letting her know how you feel. Tell her you are sorry and let her know that you made a mistake.
3) Show her that you can be understanding. Relationships end mainly because there is mis-communication. And men have the habit of bottling up their emotions once they come under attack or feel threatened. I should know. I have the habit of doing the very same thing. But I know that I have to show my wife that I am understanding of her position and feelings about the matter. And this has helped us to communicate at a higher level with each other.
While these are all great ideas for the average Joe, there are many more ideas in the "Magic of Making Up E-Book" by TW Jackson.

Let My Spouse Know She Matters - Three Areas You Can Help You Build a Stronger Marriage
Are you in a marriage that is spiraling out of control and you are asking your self “how do I let my spouse know she matters?” Getting through to your spouse can be difficult but I have always found in my counseling sessions that problems in a marriage boil down to three areas. Those areas are communication, trust and learning to appreciate each other. These are the 3 main qualities that strong marriages are built on.
Building a dynamic marriage with your spouse is not something that happens overnight. You have to remember that you are different people all together. There are going to be times where you do not agree with each other. It is only natural. But you both can work with each other to develop the communication skills that you both need to talk out your issues. Building trust in each other will allow you both see that you are each others best friend and that you are committed to the relationship. Learning to appreciate each other will show that you care dearly for each other.
Build Communication
Poor communication between couples will lead to misunderstandings in the dynamics of the marriage. Couples who talk regularly are three times more likely to be able to avoid divorce or separation when a marriage has come to a critical bump. This is because couples who have developed communication in the marriage know how to work out the small problems before they turn into bigger problems that can bring the marriage to a disastrous point. So I would make this my first step in any relationship building exercise. Simple make time for each other everyday to talk for 30 minutes. Talk about what ever you like. The important thing is to share your thoughts and feelings with each other.
Build Trust
Building trust is a little more difficult when being compared to communication. Trust is either there or it is not. So if you trust your spouse, I would hope that they are giving you the same trust in return. If not, then this should be a topic discussed in the communication section. And in turn if you do not trust your spouse then you have some soul searching to do to see if you can ever trust your spouse, for what ever reason. Ask yourself the following questions to help give you some perspective on your thoughts and you can use them when you revert to the communication step to work out your trust issues.
What has transpired that has broken the trust in the relationship?
How do you both feel about what has transpired?
Can you both see yourselves committed to building the trust again in the marriage?
How would you both like to go about rebuilding the trust in the marriage?
Learn to appreciate each other
My wife once told me that she loves me for the little things that I do. And in my marriage counseling sessions, I have found that many spouses are looking for that small sign of appreciation from their loved one. We all need to be reminded that we are loved. So show your appreciation by doing small favors for your spouse. Flowers for no special reason, doing the dishes because you want to help are a few quick one that are coming off the top of my head. You know what your spouse would appreciate. So let them know every now and then that you care.
Conclusion
I hope that I have been able to help you identify “how do I let my spouse know she matters?” Showing your wife that you are devoted in the marriage will go a long way to developing a strong happy marriage that will last the trials of time.

Communication Breakdown
It happens to the best of us. Communication is such a inconsistent thing, and the lines of communication can become fuzzy every so often, especially when feelings are involved. Even those who think that they are immune to the confusion of conflict can find themselves drawn into a communication breakdown when they least expect it, and chaos ensues.
This happened to me on the weekend, and until to be quite honest, it took me by surprise. Even those of us who are better equipped than many others are not immune. My spouse told me something that really hurt my feelings, and I lashed back in defense. It was a silly argument, over something as simple as a misplaced bottle of aftershave. But to me, it represented something much deeper that had been simmering away for a couple of weeks. I get frustrated at having to search for something when it is not where I expect it to be. Worse still when my partner has shifted it and I don’t know the first place to begin searching.
Aftershave, needles and thread, car keys, a Tupperware container to store my baking soda in, covers for our outdoor chairs, all were examples of instances where I had to turn the house upside-down. A simple answer from my partner when these things were shifted would have saved me a lot of time and frustration. And the answer I got? "You need to open your eyes and organize yourself better"
I was gutted. When I come home from work I exercise the dog and cook dinner so that it is on the table by the time my partner gets home. The house is always spotless and warm, as I’m very conscious of coming home to a tidy environment. I see this as a fundamental part of my role in coming home first, and it takes a lot of my time. To imply that I have the time to "organize yourself better" really hurt.
I don’t expect praise, but I did hope that my efforts were recognized. I got told that "I don’t expect you to cook my dinner every night" was interpreted by me as ingratitude, and hurt me even more.
So where do we go from here? My partner felt guilty at coming home every night to the perfect household, whereas I felt guilty if it wasn’t perfect. It was never about me trying to make him feel guilty, but it seems it did. And this is where the communication fell down. He misinterpreted my efforts, and I misinterpreted his response.
Communication, communication, communication. I need for my partner to keep me informed of where things move to. I need to be informed. I need to voice my frustration before it gets to boiling point. We both need to talk about our feelings more, and how each of our contributions to our home and our relationship make us feel, and how we interpret each others contributions. It is not a competition, but for many couples it feels like it.
When people feel guilt or stress, it leads them to act funny ways. Often stress and guilt are barriers to communication. The key to overcoming them is to recognize what it is, and have the courage to talk about it. You might be able to do it as a couple, or you might want the help of a friend who can listen to the way you are communicating with each other and offer insights and advice.
We got it sorted out, and kissed and hugged. It wouldn’t hurt so much if I didn’t feel such love at the same time. But it served as a good reminder to me. Sometimes you get so wrapped up in your own emotions that you forget to think of the other person. You also need to entertain the possibility that you are misinterpreting each other. Talking about it is the way to expose the miscommunication and let the healing begin.
A good lesson to learn, even for the experts…

Top 10 Reasons Why Marriages Fail
Marriages fail for many reasons. And it is very important that for couples to identify what red flags are present when it comes to unhappiness in a marriage. I have compiled the top 10 why marriages fail. Knowing what is going wrong can help you stop the separation before it is too late. Or you may even be able to get your ex back.
1. Financial Problems
For the most part, it is the lack of open communication about money problems that jeopardize a marriage are more than the financial problems alone. Everyone has financial issues relating to bills, debts, spending and budgets. How a couple deals with those issues can make or break a relationship.
2. Communications Problems
If a couple has communication problems prior to marriage, those problems are likely to get worse after tying the knot. It is important that both partners are able to discuss every aspect of married life openly and on a regular basis. A marriage without two-way communication will not last long.
3. Family Problems
Family relationships with children, parents, in-laws, siblings and step-children are all sources of marital problems. Raising children increases stress in the home and can cause minor differences of opinion to become major rifts in a relationship. Discretion is the better part of valor when it comes to family and marriage.
4. Sex Problems
Sex is an important part of marriage and the source of many marriage problems. Every marriage requires the act of consummation by sexual intercourse. Failure to consummate a marriage or problems with sexual frequency, quality, and infidelity are all common reasons for marriage failure and divorce.
5. Friend Problems
Close personal friends of either spouse do not always make the transition to friends of the marriage. Some relationships with friends can be poisonous to the marriage if they insert themselves between spouses. A good friend will enhance a married couple’s relationship. People who try to break a marriage apart are not quality friends.
6. Addiction Problems
Drug, alcohol and gambling abuse are all forms of dependence that are very detrimental to a marriage. Even without the presence of physical or verbal abuse, the behavior of an addicted spouse can make normal married life impossible. Addictions are also a familiar source of money problems in a marriage as well.
7. Abuse Problems
Abuse of any kind is never acceptable in a marriage. Physical and verbal abuse are all too often the causes of a marital break-down. Sexual abuse and emotional abuse also fall into this category. One partner’s desire to degrade their spouse in an ongoing pattern of abuse will surely cause a marriage to fail in time.
8. Personality Problems
There are many kinds of personality traits that can make a couple incompatible and unable to reach agreement in matters concerning sex, intellect and emotion. Partners that have compulsive needs to please or belittle can make honest communication impossible. Negative personality traits make a long-term relationship unbearable and divorce a real possibility.
9. Expectation Problems
Adapting to changes in married life often depends on having realistic expectations about a spouse and the marriage relationship itself. It is common for disillusionment to set in when romantic or other unrealistic expectations are not met. Over time, unmet expectations can generate enough dissatisfaction to make meaningful compromise impossible.
10. Time Problems
Work and home schedules are not always attuned. Time spent apart and time spent together is equally important for maintaining a good married relationship. When time is used in a balanced way, it results in opportunities for growth and harmony. A lot of time spent alone without a corresponding period of quality time spent together puts a lot of stress on a marriage.
