Divorce was rare only two or three decades ago. Today, it is all too frequent. Life has become demanding enough. Now, thousands of couples are under pressure to save their marriage. The following six stop divorce tips will help eliminate the stress on your relationship.

One: The first step is to avoid disagreements over unimportant things. Maybe she likes to chat during TV, or he hogs the bed or doesn't screw the cap back on the toothpaste. Stop stressing over it. Learn to put up with minor imperfections in your spouse. Be a little tolerant about these small things, and enjoy the same in return.

Two: Seek your spouse's counsel in any important decision. Making a major purchase? Thinking of a career change? Bring your partner into the loop. Develop a strong sense of togetherness.

Three: Keep in mind, your marriage is your most important relationship. Give it the priority it should have. Make it a point to spend quality time together as you reawaken your love for one another. Plan two or three dates together every month. This will add spice to your marriage as you go on new adventures together.

Just figure out what was the one thing that caused the fight. What could have been done to put a stop to the disagreement. If you learn you were wrong, swallow your pride and say your sorry.
