by Dr. Mark Avery Reed
A ‘hopeless’ spouse doesn’t mean a hopeless marriage. Have you ever felt hopeless about your marriage improving because it seems that your spouse is unwilling to change? You don’t think your marriage can get better because you believe your spouse is hopelessly unwilling to change – and you assume that their changing is necessary for marital improvement to begin. That assumption is wrong.

Seemingly stubborn resistance to change can be overcome. However, it needs to start with us, not with our spouse. This book provides many ways we can act differently to increase the chances our marriage will eventually get better. These are changes we can make that will cause us to be much more attractive to a normal spouse and, in time, is likely to soften them so they do end up changing. We are not manipulating them to change but making improvements in ourself and in how we interact with our spouse. As a result, our interactions with them are different, better.
The changes recommended in this book are not complicated or too difficult for a normal person to do. In addition, they don’t all have to be done at the same time. You could choose the approach that is doable for you then add in others later. A few of these include acting like a better friend to your spouse, improving your manners with them, and/or frequently expressing gratitude to them. Improve your marriage by improving yourself!
