What must you do to rekindle love in your marriage? If things get serious and you separate with your spouse, what are the things that you must do to win them back?
The truth of the matter is that there are a lot of things that you can do to make this happen. There are numerous websites, blogs, books and forums that provide support to people who are going through difficult times in their marriages. You can consider these "tried and tested" programs to rekindle love and save your marriage but at the end of the day you will discover that everything starts with plain common sense. In fact, common courtesy can do great wonders in patching up your differences with your spouse.
1. Don't play mind games with your spouse!
It is important that you come clean and clear when you deal with the problem with your spouse. Don't resort to actions that tend to drive them further away from you just to prove your sense of power and control. You are not out to compete with your spouse with the expectation that you end up "victorious" at the end of the day. If you are trying to show them that you don't care anymore, while in fact you still do, you are actually manipulating them. Ultimately, they will see through those deceptions. You will end up with an empty bag if they finally decides to put a closure to your relationship and ask for divorce.
If you truly want to rekindle love in your relationship with your spouse, it is important that you focus your efforts in trying to work out your differences with them. Don't dwell on past mistakes or transgressions. Instead, find ways to become a better person and prove to them that you deserve another chance.
2. Don't be a vicious animal
You have to remember the key objective of this entire exercise. It is reconciliation. You can achieve this only if you are willing to forgive and forget unconditionally. Don't dwell on the past. Purge those ill feeling and anger. Control your emotions. It is important that you defer any planned encounter with your spouse to sort out your differences if you think you might commit something that you will regret later. Avoid going to serious arguments with your spouse. Don't shout or nag. The last thing that you want to happen when trying to rekindle love in your marriage is increasing the tension between you and your spouse.
These are just the initial steps in getting your spouse back. What happens next is entirely up to you. If you have your own formula in saving your marriage, you must remember that everything starts from within you. You can never solve your problems with your spouse if you are not ready emotionally.

You really said it and so simply too.
This is excatly what I tell my readers all the time, no game playing and manipulation when trying to win a spouse or partner back.
Like you I do not have "string of degrees" either, however, I have been married for a very long time and have experiential know-how that helps me keep the love and respect in my marriage alive and evolving.
Thanks for a wonderfully informative and enlightening article!
