Signs Of A Husband Who Wants To Save His Marriage And Work Things Out With His Wife

One of the most common questions that I get or am asked on my blog is: "what are the signs of a husband who wants a divorce?" I'm rarely asked for signs indicating the opposite. But, sometimes wives do notice positive changes in their husband's attitude or stance on the separation or divorce and they'll ask me how a husband might act when he's decided that he wants to work things out and save your marriage. It's important to recognize these signs, because when your husband's attitude shifts, so should yours. If he's becoming more receptive to working things out, then you'll want to place your focus on improving your marriage rather than on changing his mind. So, in the following article, I'll offer some signs to look for that might indicate that your husband wants to work things out and save your marriage.

He's Being Attentive And Involved Again: One of the first signs that your husband has checked out of the marriage or might want a separation or divorce is that he will often distance himself from you or your family. He might not even realize (or will acknowledge) that he's doing this, but creating distance is often the first step toward going his own way. If he's considering leaving or wants out, you might notice that he's simply not around as much or, when he is, his mind is a million miles away.

However, if he's decided that he now wants to work things out, the opposite will be true. You'll see him making a noticeable attempt to be present both literally, physically, and emotionally.

Signs Of A Husband Who Wants To Save His Marriage And Work Things Out With His Wife

He's Showing You Genuine Emotional And Physical Affection: Husbands who want separations or divorces will generally withdraw their affection. Sometimes, in the beginning stages of a marriage's decline, you'll see a little more affection as the husband is attempting to reignite the spark or see if "anything is still there" between you. But generally speaking, once he begins to distance himself from you and the marriage, you'll start to see much less physical affection and emotional support.

However, once he decides that he's committed to working things out, you should see a noticeable (and genuine) difference in the affection that he shows you. There should be more spontaneous hugs, hand holding, kissing, sex, etc. Because when one spouse thinks favorably about the other spouse (as well as about the marriage,) physical affection is the natural outcome of those feelings. If the feelings don't exist, then the levels of affection will be reflective of this.

He Continues Or Begins To Talk About Your Marital Future: When a man wants a separation or divorce, you generally won't often hear him discuss your marriage very far into the future. What is the point of talking about investments, your hopes, your dreams, and your future plans if he doesn't intend to stick around to see them come to light. If your husband is suddenly talking about having children, making investments, buying a house, or taking future vacations, then these things are a good sign.

He's More Willing To Discuss His Feelings And Reservations In Order To Improve Your Marriage: It's no secret that many husbands cringe when their wives ask them to "work" with them on saving the marriage. And, a man who knows that deep in his heart that he wants a separation or divorce is usually especially resistant to anything that would save the marriage. But, if the tide is turning and he truly wants to work things out, you'll often see him put his reluctance or discomfort aside in order to do what's best for the marriage.

This is generally when you'll see him agree to counseling or respond to your requests that he share any concerns or issues with you so that you can both work through them. You should see an openness and willingness to be honest, even if he's uncomfortable discussing his feelings (as many men are.)

He Tells You That He Wants To Save The Marriage In A Genuine And Believable Way And Then Follows These Assertions With Actions And Behaviors That Match His Words: It's not at all uncommon for me to hear from wives whose husband is insisting that he wants to work things out and to save the marriage, but his actions are not corresponding with his words. In other words, many husbands will insist that they want to save their marriages, but they continue to distance themselves from their wives. Sometimes, a man will tell you what he thinks you want to hear and then go right out and act contrary to what he has said.

That's why you're looking for genuine and heart felt words that are followed by the actions that back them up. You want to hear the words, but you also want to see and feel the affection, the effort, and the changes that are taking place.

If I'm Not Seeing These Signs, Does This Mean That My Husband Doesn't Want To Work Things Out?: Not necessarily. Often, when I share these signs with wives, I'll be meant with some anxiety. Many wives will say that they've seen one or two of these signs but certainly not all of them. They worry that this means that their husband doesn't truly want to save the marriage. This isn't always the case. Like us, men can have some doubts and fears and might be taking a "wait and see" attitude. They might want to save their marriage, but aren't sure if it's going to be possible. Or they may really want to work things out, but they don't like feeling so vulnerable when they're stepping outside of their comfort zone by focusing on their feelings.

The point is, if you're seeing all of these signs (or even not many of them,) embrace the positive signals that you are seeing and then continue to work on your marriage with an upbeat and positive attitude that is often infectious. I firmly believe that it's possible to save your marriage when your husband still has doubts or isn't fully cooperating, especially in the early stages of the process. It's a little more involved than if you have his full cooperation, but it's certainly possible. And even wives who see all of these signs still have work to do. Merely having two people who are willing to save the marriage doesn't mean that it's automatically going to be saved. It takes work, some skill, some luck, and a very workable plan that's eventually carried out by both people.

Unfortunately for me, I didn't see many of these signs in my own marriage. My own husband was very reluctant to work things out with me. Trying to convince and strong arm him to change his mind back fired on me in a big way. Luckily, I decided to show him my sincerity and love for him with my genuine actions rather than my words. And it worked. You can read more of that emotional story on my blog at http://isavedmymarriage.com/

A Letter to My Husband to Save My Marriage

The other day, I received an email from a wife who asked me for help in drafting "a letter to my husband that will tell him that I want to save the marriage."  I actually get this request quite a bit.  It can be very tempting to write a letter.  You don't have to worry that you're going to be interrupted or that you will break down or not communicate what you are trying to say very clearly.  And sometimes, in the beginning of the process, a letter can really help you to clearly communicate what you want to say, but you have to be careful here.  You don't want to rely on words rather than action.  In order to really be able to save the marriage, you will need to follow through with your promises.  Otherwise, your husband will begin to tune you out so that no matter what magic or flowery words you put into the letter, they really do not mean anything if you don't follow them up and make real changes.  None the less, in the following article, I will offer tips and advice to help you to say the correct things in this "save my marriage" letter to your husband.

Outlining Exactly How You Are Going To Save The Marriage In Your Letter: Of course, your first inclination might be to tell him that you love him and that the way that things are going are hurting you both. You may want to say that your goal is to get back on track so that things are more like they were when you were dating.  All of these points can score you his attention, but here's what he really wants to know.  This is very important.  He really wants to know why things are going to be different this time.

Because he's likely thinking that you are on a troubling path where things really do not change for the better and that the two of you have lost your closeness, don't relate in the same way, and have been drifting apart.  Now, many women will go ahead and make a huge mistake here.  This is where they will tell him that they are committed to "working with him" to save the marriage.  And, yes, this is what you will ultimately have to do.  But, in this letter of yours, you REALLY need to think about how your husband is going to perceive and react to what you are saying.

A Letter to My Husband to Save My Marriage

If what you are proposing is "work," then how receptive do you think he's really going to be? He may well want to save the marriage as much as you do, but if what you present to him sounds like drudgery and more of the same, he's not likely to be as enthusiastic as you need for him to be.

What you're really wanting to accomplish is to remind him of how magical things used to be between you and to then tell him how you are going to get the two of you back to this place.  (Hint: It's often not by "working" on your problems or your marriage.)  What you outline should sound appealing and fun.  You want to reconnect with him and introduce more fun and excitement in your life.  You want to bond with him over things that you both enjoy.  You want to take a few risks, shake things up, and relate in new and better ways.

How To Give Him The Marriage Saving Letter And How To Follow It Up:  Many women will just leave the letter on his windshield or on the kitchen table after they leave for work.  They are hoping to avoid awkward pauses and / or confrontations. I understand this, but I feel that you are better off saying a few words and giving it to him in person.  You'll just want to hold the letter, look into his eyes, and tell him that you put your feelings down on paper as you found this easier and you would like for him to read it when he is ready.

Once he has read the letter, this should pave the way to smoother communication.  However, it is so important that you follow up what you've said with quick and decisive action.  Words will only take you so far. They can certainly pave the way.  But, it is lasting and real action that is going to really save this marriage.

I wrote my own "save my marriage letter" when I was trying to get my husband to see things my way. Unfortunately, I did not follow it up with the appropriate action. As a result, I thought my marriage was truly at it's end. We had seemingly tried everything - from counseling to trips to a trial separation. Thankfully, even though I had doubts, I decided to try one last thing, to give a little more, and to approach it from another angle (by focusing on my own time and efforts) and this eventually worked.

Top 10 Meeting Ice Breakers

Getting people comfortable in a group setting before a team meeting can be the best investment of ten to 15 minutes of time that you can make. Ice breakers get creative juices flowing, can increase the exchange of ideas, establish team identity, and create a sense of community. All of these items are important in forging top productive teams. But how do you get people to participate and not feel uncomfortable with an ice breaker?

For meetings in a business setting in which participants are professionals, ice breakers that require actions not normally associated with day-to-day behaviors in the office generally make people uncomfortable. Successful ice breakers for these type of groups generally consist of having attendees share memorable information with each other, create innovative ways to get people to introduce themselves to each other, or have group members collectively work on a problem where everyone has to contribute.

We've selected our top ten team meeting ice breakers that are sure to get your meeting participants relaxed and ready to focus on your agenda as well as to connect with others in the group.

Top 10 Meeting Ice Breakers

1. Brainstorm!:Break the meeting into teams of four or five. Give each team a topic. Pick topics that are fun and simple like, "What would you take on a trip to the desert?" or "List things that are purple". Give your teams two minutes, no more, and tell them "This is a contest and the team with the most items on their list wins." Encourage the teams to write down as many things as they can and not to discuss anything, just list things as quickly as possible. At the end of two minutes, the team with the most items on their list wins! This helps people to share ideas without fearing what other people will think.

2. Same or Different:

Divide the meeting into teams of three or four and give each team a large sheet of paper and then give each person a different colored marker. Have each person draw a large oval such that each oval overlaps with the other ovals in the center of the piece of paper. Give the group or groups, a theme that pertains to your meeting objectives. Ask the participants to write down at least five or more entries in the non-overlapping and mutually overlapping areas of their ovals. Give them five minutes, no more than that, to talk about their similarities and differences and write them in their own ovals on the paper. If there is more than one group, compare results and identify common themes in both parts of the diagrams and what light these similarities and differences shed on the purpose of the meeting. This helps team members develop an understanding of shared objectives and in a non-confrontational way learn how their views differ from others in the group.

3. Fact or Fiction:

Have everyone write down three surprising things about themselves, two of which are true, and one of which is made up. Each person, in turn, reads their list and then the rest of the group votes on which "fact" they feel is the "false" one. If the group does not correctly pick a person's made up "fact", then that person wins. A group can have more than one winner. At the end, the whole group votes on which of the "winners" of the final round, had the most deceiving "fact". This helps people get to know and remember their colleagues.

4. Free Association:

The object of this ice breaker is to have small groups generate as many words or phrases as they can that are related to a particular topic that focuses on the objective of your meeting. Give the group or groups a key word you want them to associate with and then give them two minutes to list, as quickly as possible, as many words or thoughts that pop into their heads. For example, if your company is trying to decide on whether to reduce travel and increase the use of teleconferencing, you might use the word "teleconferencing" and have people list as many words or phrases they can that they associate with the key word. For example they might say: "saves money", "saves time", "impersonal", "need to see other people", "get distracted", "sound quality".... This reveals what people are thinking, similarities in viewpoints, and possibly even problem areas or topics that need addressing or further discussion.

5. Nametags:

Prepare nametags for each person and put them in a box. As people walk into the room, each person picks a nametag (not their own). When everyone is present, participants are told to find the person whose nametag they drew and introduce and say a few interesting things about themselves. When everyone has their own nametag, each person in the group will introduce the person whose nametag they were initially given and mention something of interest about that person. This helps participants get to know and remember each other.

6. Desert Island:

Group people in teams of five or six and tell them they will be marooned on a desert island. Give them 30 seconds to list all the things they think they should take and each person has to contribute at least three items. At the end of 30 seconds, tell the teams they can only take three things. Have the person who suggested each item on the list tell why they suggested it and defend why their item should be one of the chosen three. This helps the team learn about how each of them thinks, get to know each other's values, and how they solve problems.

7. Commonality Plus:

Group your meeting participants at tables. At each table ask the group to list ten ways that everyone in that group is similar. Let them know that they cannot list body parts or clothing and that what they select cannot have anything to do with work. One person at the table should be tasked to make their list. At the end of your time limit have the group share their list with all meeting members. This is a great opportunity for your meeting attendees to learn about each other's hobbies, families, and common interests.

8. Line Up:

As people enter your meeting hand each one a piece of paper with a different number written on it. Ask the group to arrange themselves in numeric order without using their voices, hands, or showing their number. This helps the team to think of other ways to communicate with each other and to work together to achieve a common goal.

9. Meet and Greet Shoe Pile:

This works great in large groups and is a variation of the name tag ice breaker. Have everyone take off one of their shoes and throw it into a pile. Have each group member pick up a shoe and walk around the meeting room greeting other people as they try to match their selected shoe to the one another team member is wearing. This is a great way for new people to meet several members in a group.

10. First or Worst:

Have each member tell the group their first or worst job in turn. This easy to use ice breaker works great with teleconferences too and allows team members to spark conversation with each other and to have some fun commenting on the jobs that they have each done. Many of our top ten ice breakers can be used for on-site meetings and teleconferences alike. The nature of ice breakers is to get the group to talk, to share, and to get to know each other in a casual exchange. The best and most successful teams start with a little bit of fun; learning how to value what each member brings into the group. Ice breakers can help facilitate this exchange of information and comfort in doing so at the very start of the team forging process.

Used Cars For Sale On EBay

There are thousands of used cars for sale on eBay every
single day. In fact, eBay Motors is the most profitable
sales division on eBay and naturally there are many
entrepreneurs who are interested in jumping into this
market. For instance, eBay claims it sells an SUV every nine
seconds and is the biggest online car dealer in America,
exceeding the traditional car companies. In fact, there are
15 million cars sold over the Internet each year - and
growing.

The recent rapid growth of the consignment business model
has made the used car market even more enticing. Many
sellers are able to sell cars they have never even seen and
with no more risk than the cost of the auction listing. Some
negotiators even persuade the car owner to pay for the ad,
thereby risking no more than their time.

The biggest single issue for this business model is the
trust of prospective buyers. After all, paying thousands or
tens of thousands of dollars for a car sight unseen is an
awesome leap of faith. Even buying for a plane ticket to go
see a car before paying causes buyers to be uncomfortable.

Used Cars For Sale On EBay

The best way sellers can overcome this fear is to use an
escrow service. eBay has a preferred service, and it's
easiest to use that one.

An escrow service acts as a neutral third party. In an
exchange of merchandise, the buyer sends his money to the
escrow service and the seller ships the product to the
buyer. The buyer usually has two days to inspect his
purchase, and if he is happy, he notifies the escrow company
who releases the money to the seller, minus its fee. If the
buyer is dissatisfied, he returns the undamaged merchandise
to the seller, and after the seller receives his merchandise
back (in satisfactory condition), the escrow service returns
the buyer's money. Thus both sides in the transaction are
protected. The buyer almost always pays the fees for this,
although sometimes buyer and seller split the cost.

eBay's offers a "Vehicle Services Division" specifically for
dealing with the used cars, trucks, SUVs and almost anything
else with wheels and a motor. The buyer can request a 160
point inspection performed before agreeing to the purchase.
This is an inexpensive service and certainly will save the
purchaser many headaches.

* The buyer pays a 5 fee that is non-refundable

* The seller is contacted and the inspection is carried outv
* The buyer receives a reportv
* The buyer chooses to go ahead with the purchase - or not

Another choice for the buyer is to deposit his payment with
the escrow service and then take delivery of the vehicle.
The seller ships the car after he knows the money his
secure. The seller must provide tracking information, which
is then verified.

The buyer has between one and 30 days to thoroughly inspect
his new purchase (the period is negotiated between the two
parties ahead of time). If this time expires and the escrow
company has not heard from the buyer, it assumes he is happy
and gives the purchase price to the seller.

The buyer may return his vehicle if he isn't happy and
sometimes buyers and sellers work out partial payment
agreements, the buyer being satisfied with some parts of the
transaction, but not with others. If a dispute arises, it is
settled by the American Arbitration Association.

The fee for this service is:

* - ,500 = value of vehicle: 5

* ,500.01 to ,000: 0

* ,000.01 to ,000: 0

* ,000.01 to ,000: 5

* ,000+ = 6% of the value

Once both parties have agreed, the title transfer process
begins and the escrow service will guarantee this too, for a
fee of . The fee, naturally, doesn't include any transfer
costs - it is only insurance that the title will be
expedited to the satisfaction of both parties.

eBay's escrow service also offers a service that will ship
cars almost anywhere in the world and will gather an auto
history report to inform sellers if their new chariot has
been salvaged or stolen, suffered flood or hail damage, been
in a fire or accident, has had an odometer rollback or has
been used as a police car, a rental or a taxi.

Anyone considering offering used cars for sale on eBay would
be well advised to thoroughly learn the escrow services
available and offer those to prospective buyers. The trust
factor will skyrocket and your chances of completing sales
will dramatically increase.
