		</div><p>Hey Philip here,</p>
<p>Julie and I have been arguing over many things since we tied the knot and it came to the point where we just ignored and stopped talking to each other. As I mentioned, we had a discussion together on where things went wrong but she wasn&#8217;t ready for it yet. She couldn&#8217;t take it and went on being defensive for things we didn&#8217;t agree upon.</p>
<p>I tried to talk to her and took several measures to figure out how to stay married happily together. I suggested we separate for the time being, thinking that we would start to miss each other and get back together stronger. She agreed.</p>
<p>During that period, I desperately tried to figure out how to stay married. Marriage counseling, friends and family couldn&#8217;t help much. I resorted to seek for advice on the internet. I wasn&#8217;t necessarily looking for a course on how to save my marriage but that was when I came across Amy Waterman&#8217;s <a href="http://www.howtostaymarried.net/go/savemarriage/" rel="nofollow" >Save My Marriage Today e-course and book</a>. To be totally honest, I was a bit hesitant to try it. You can read <a href="http://www.howtostaymarried.net/save-my-marriage-today-review/" >my review of it here</a>.</p>
<p>I wasn&#8217;t the best computer man around so having to download a book and then taking a class online was slightly intimidating but I wanted to save my marriage with Julie. Let&#8217;s be honest, imagine how many infomercials and the likes appear on TV every night promising to do this or that, but you know it&#8217;s all a scam? Well, when I opened it, I knew that this was what I needed. I was truly impressed by <em>Save My Marriage Today</em>&#8217;s and I&#8217;ll tell you why.</p>
<p>It has 20 chapters and during the period we were separated, I read the book from cover to cover twice. The course allowed me to <strong>understand my mistakes in my relationship</strong> with my wife. If I were to ask my friends or family, the would have said nothing and I would never been able to see what I was doing to my wife. Also, I was hesitant to seek friends and family for advice because they can be a bit judgmental. That being said, the advice from Amy Waterman&#8217;s <em>Save My Marriage Today</em> book made more sense to me than listening to the marriage counselor.</p>
<p>This e-course also does a great job <strong>addressing the lack of physical intimacy</strong> in our relationship. Although a bit embarrassing to discuss our sexless marriage right here, it wasn&#8217;t as bad as I thought. Amy gave me many tips to add that extra level of intimacy into our relationship (which wasn&#8217;t there before!)</p>
<p>Well, every product has it&#8217;s own <strong>shortcomings</strong> and I&#8217;ll quickly tell you what I didn&#8217;t like!</p>
<ul>
	<li>Firstly, it was a <strong>lengthy book</strong>! It&#8217;s about 150+ pages and 35 exercise included with it. The language is very polished and it&#8217;s surprisingly easy to read. There are 6 bonus books included and I find &#8220;&#8216;How to be Happy!&#8221; and &#8220;&#8216;Seven Ways to Live Life to the Max&#8221; most enjoyable to read. Although it took lots of time to go through them, it was worth the read.</li>
	<li>The &#8216;<em>Love Bank</em>&#8216; concept introduced by the book was not properly conveyed and this idea was originated from <a href="http://www.howtostaymarried.net/his-needs-her-needs/" rel="nofollow" >Dr Williard Haley&#8217;s &#8220;His Needs, Her Needs: Building an Affair-Proof Marriage&#8221;</a><img style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=stayingmarried-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=0800717880" border="0" alt=" How To Stay Married Like I Did" width="1" height="1" title="How To Stay Married Like I Did" /> book. For those who are interested, this book explains the concept in a greater detail and I recommend you understand the concept because it&#8217;s very important!</li>
	<li>Although there were many case studies included in the book, I felt the <strong>author could have included</strong> more to illustrate their key points. Nevertheless, the knowledge I gained was useful and everything worked out fine for me.</li>
</ul>
<h2><strong>My Happy Ending!</strong></h2>
<p>Most importantly, this book has taught me how to <strong>handle not only my own faults</strong> but also my wife&#8217;s.</p>
<p>I learned what a relationship between married couples should be like and in hindsight, I truly believe that this guide is tailored for a wide variety of people having difficulties in their marriage (even for the divorced!). The information in this course is now the <strong>pillars of my own relationship</strong> with my wife and I recommend this course to anyone!</p>
<p>Now I realize begging, pleading, being desperate and volatile was one of the main reasons why it made me more unattractive and our relationship worse. The &#8216;New&#8217; me created from the book is now very appealing to my wife. I&#8217;ve vowed to communicate openly to my wife and being happy with myself is a huge key to my marriage. The things I learned from the book have been put into good practice and the results are pretty convincing.</p>
<p>I believe if you work through this course like I did, <strong>you will</strong> not only be able to save your marriage but also <strong>rebuild the foundation for a better and stronger relationship</strong> with your partner. Sometimes I wonder if the hardships I endured was actually a blessing in disguise because with this book, I&#8217;ve created an even healthier relationship with my wife!</p>
