Hello! I am new to the marriage builders forum. I am in need of some encouraging advice and stories of successful divorce and remarriage of an ex spouse. I divorced my husband back in December and I regretted the decision! I felt like I didn't think things through! We both did our part to hurt the marriage but I feel like it isn't anything that can't be worked through! If anyone has been through this or know of someone who has, please let me know! I have been praying about this situation and I feel that God has placed a fighting spirit in me to work as hard as I can to get my marriage back! Please help!

cm, you can remarry and have a great marriage *IF* you have a plan. Not having a plan is a plan to fail. This program is very effective in restoring romantic love and resolving conflicts if you follow it very strictly. It takes a committment to changing the marriage wrecking behaviors that led to your divorce, but it absolutely can be done. Dr Harley has transformed marriages where the couples actually hated each other. I would read up on his basic concepts and get his books, Fall in Love, Stay in Love and Lovebusters. Those books will show you how to change your relationship. Start here: Basic Concepts

Hi cm, you don't give details of your circumstance, but yes it is possible.
We were divorced in March 2010 after 25 years of marriage, and remarried December 2011. Marriage Builders does work - but you do have an extra hard road after divorce. That year was the hardest and worst time of my life, and I am just so thankful to God, and Dr Harley's program, that my wife and I now have the opportunity to build a new life and marriage on a strengthened foundation.
My best advice is, follow the advice from the website and these forums - just be the best person you can be, and maybe your ex spouse will want to join the ride with you into a transformed life and marriage. By following MB principles, even if things don't work out, you will be a in a much better place personally, and for any future relationship
Good luck.
