How do you fix a broken marriage? Please pray for my marriage... Here's what I want to know :

Take two people who are at the point of no return, marriage feels like it can't be repaired. Can we rekindle the flame? Will we ever love each other like we did before - I'm talking about reach for the stars over the fence world series kinda stuff?

i think most relationships fail because of unresolved resentments. do you have any unresolved resentments? do they?

@Penny There are many. And everytime my wife and I try to have a discussion it ends in an argument because we are both trying to say - "you've done me worse than I've done you."

@Penny There's no infidelity but there's a lot of hurtful and mean things we've said and done to each other.

@LoveTriumphsOverHate well, i figure if you actually love each other enough, the resentments will be easy to get past if you give each other a chance to express themselves about it and let each other know how it made them feel. suppressed feelings can cause violent anger. i think thats the hard part. actually recognizing what the uncomfortable or unnacceptable feeling was or is. and how it can tie in to old unresolved hurts from like childhood or stuff. if one or the other is not willing to do the work then they mustnt be mature enough to deal with the feelings or not care enough to want to learn and grow and try. in some cases it might be time to move on. idk. i personally am divorced and quite happy about it. but if you two would want to work things out and stay together then maybe its something you both need to work on.
