Work, kids, soccer practice, ballet class, paying off the mortgage — these eat up so much of your time you often forget to make room for the one thing should have come first – how to save a marriage.

Given the number of divorces being filed every day, it is not surprising for how to save a marriage to be the subject of so many blogs, magazines, and books. One of them, the book Bring Back the Love of Your Life, provides an insightful look at just how easy it should have been for one to figure out how to save a marriage.

But how do you save a marriage, really? Here are three tips.

1. Give time.
No matter how busy you are, make time for your spouse. Woo her. Take her out to dinner. Talk to her. Spend at least an hour or two a week connecting and reconnecting with each other.

2. Never nag.
There is no justification for nagging, unless of course your house is burning. As a rule of thumb, you should leave the nagging to fishwives.

3. Be affectionate.
Write her a note. Bring her a rose. In little ways, show her just how important she is to you.

Remember, if firemen could rescue a burning building, there’s no reason you can’t rescue your failing marriage.
