Are You Just Delaying “The Inevitable?”

150 150 Lee H. Baucom, Ph.D.

Are you just delaying the inevitable, or can you really save a marriage?I get this question often enough to know that you may be wondering, too.  Is it really possible to save a marriage, or are you just delaying the inevitable?

Many people want to know this before they even start the process.  They want to make sure that the effort will be worth it.  If not, why go through the struggle, right?

Some people do make the effort to save their marriage… but they never quite get to the point of really changing anything.  They might engage a bit, work on it a bit… and they gain some ground.  But in reality, nothing changed.  It’s more like cleaning a house that is in disrepair.  It looks better, but nothing got fixed.

Then, there are others.  They decide that they can’t go back.  They realize the relationship must change.  And change it, they do!

And save their marriage, they do!

The question is really about whether the real change happened, or just a “spring cleaning.”

The choice between the two?  All yours.

Listen to this episode of the podcast for more on making those real changes.
