If your relationship is coming apart, and your main concern is to prevent it from ending, you may wonder if it is even possible to save it. In many cases, you can.
One positive sign that the answer is "Yes" is if you and your partner have both invested emotions in the relationship. It does not matter how long you have been together; some relationships which have been very brief do have this important quality. Love, compassion, caring, and even commitment can exist even if you were only together for a short while.
If you and your partner share dreams and goals, this is another positive sign that you can save your relationship. In many instances, it is not difficult to resurrect those all-important goals which the two of you have shared, and begin to make them a reality.
The best sign that you can indeed save your relationship is that the desire to do so is mutual. Perhaps your partner is not as ready to give up as he says or even thinks he is. Perhaps all it will really take is some heartfelt communication to find that the relationship you had thought was lost is nearer than you realize.
In some cases, you can save your relationship even if your partner is not completely willing to do so. It can help to remind him of the good times you shared together, all of the things that were positive about your relationship, and the hopes and plans you had for the future. There are probably many, many things about your relationship that made your partner happy-- now is the time to bring them all up.
While saving your relationship cannot be one hundred percent one-sided, it may require more effort on your part to help your partner to understand that simply giving up would be giving up too much - and that there will be a much brighter, happier future ahead when you get back together and have that future to look forward to together.
