The Best Online Marriage Guides - Updated August 2010
In a perfect world, relationships would be trouble-free. However, everybody knows that maintaining a strong bond with your significant other takes a lot of work...

The worst possible outcome when a couple are not able to resolve their marriage difficulties is to divorce. A recent survey found that statistically almost 90% of those couples who had sought help to manage their marital difficulties had succeeded in saving their marriage.

If you are going through difficulties in your relationship you should take heart in the fact that so many people who had sought professional advice had been able to put their marriages back on track.

In our quest to provide the best possible guidance to those suffering marriage difficulties we recently spent just over three months researching, reviewing and analyzing the top 15 most popular marriage guides. We have now reviewed a further 8, making a total of 23.

A couple of our earlier recommendations have been replaced recently by guides that we believe are more effective and provide better value.

We have taken a completely professional approach to the reviewing of each of the products. They have all been subjected to a thorough analysis for freshness, effectiveness, content and value for money. You can be assured that each product was reviewed at arms length and without bias of any kind.

Unfortunately we have to say that the vast majority of the products that we purchased were full of "fluff" and suggested techniques that simply would not work ... It left us wondering just how qualified some of these people were that they should have the cheek to offer such rubbish dished up as relationship advice.

There are six guides that stood out from the rest that we consider provide value for money.
Each of them has the following characteristics:
 



 

 


 

 



They are effective and work for the majority of people regardless of marital status.
Importantly, you don't have to be beautiful, rich or have the most fantastic personality to make these systems work for you.

They are easy to follow.
You don't need to go through a complete character change (which most people would find difficult to do) to get your marriage back on track ... The steps are simple and easy to apply.
Each one covers an extensive range of issues and reveals exactly where you are going wrong in your marriage and what effective actions you can take to make your relationship better.

They are affordable.
Consulting professional relationship experts can be very expensive. Charges of $150 plus per hour are typical. Before you know it you are likely to have spent over $1000 and have still made little headway. Whereas the guides that we recommend cost a nominal amount and can be referred to over and over again until the techniques have been mastered. They are therefore more likely be of greater benefit to you than private consultations.

The authors offer ongoing support.
This is an extremely important and valuable aspect. The recommended guides offer this either in the form of online support by phone, video or email.

They provide valuable bonuses.
Usually provided in the form of additional guides or mp3 recordings.


These guides, which are instantly downloadable, not only offer practical solutions to your existing problems, they also contain valuable information that will enable you to maintain the general longevity and happiness of your relationship.

MARRIAGE GUIDES - OUR NUMBER TWO RECOMMENDATION
ALMOST AS COMPREHENSIVE AS THE PREMIUM GUIDE BUT AT A FRACTION OF THE COST


Save My Marriage TodaySave My Marriage Today

Reviewers: Brad and Michelle Ritchie

"Save My Marriage Today" is co authored by Amy Waterman and  Andrew Rusbatch both of who are professional writers and consultants specializing in relationship and marriage issues.

This guide comprises 5 marriage saving ebooks, including "How to Cheat Proof Your Relationship" as well as an exclusive collection of members articles.

Also Included in this package is a free email option whereby you can email the "Save My Marriage Today" team and get advice for your specific situation. 

Review Summary

Amy and Andrew provide sure fire methods for couples to break the ice and develop ways to successfully interact and strengthen their failing relationship.

They identify the major problems occurring in troubled marriages and show you how to easily avoid and correct those crucial mistakes that actually jeopardize your chances of saving your failing marriage.

We're also very impressed by the fact that a special free email consultation service is also currently included with the package. Although we have not personally accessed this service we are sure that it will be up to the same high standard as the rest of the products.

Without doubt, this guide provides the most incredibly valuable insights into the major reasons for many of the marital problems confronting countless couples today and presents practical solutions for dealing with those issues.

It's not as comprehensive as the "Premium" Save My Marriage Today program, however because of the wealth of detail and practical advice it provides we rated it extremely highly.

It contains no fluff, gets straight to the point and provides practical and workable solutions rather than simplistic theoretical ones as is the case with many of the other on line guides we purchased.

MARRIAGE GUIDES - OUR NUMBER TWO EQUAL RECOMMENDATION
A PRACTICAL AND COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE FOR THOSE IN TROUBLED MARRIAGES


Save The Marriage eBook Review

Reviewers: Brad and Michelle Ritchie

Save the marriage ebookThis guide has been compiled by Lee Baucom, who is a marriage counselor, consultant, and broadcaster. He has also featured in several national magazines because of his unique and effective approach to saving marriages.

We were very impressed with his well presented and easily implemented practical solutions to the multitude of difficulties many people face in their marriages.

The "Save The Marriage eBook" is an outstanding product and has been available now for almost 10 years. It includes two excellent ebooks, several special reports and a couple of brilliant CD's. In addition purchasers receive a free email consultation and a handful of bonuses.

Dr Baucom offers some interesting perspectives in this video.

Review Summary

Although we don't agree completely with Lee Baucom's attitude towards communication in marriage, nevertheless it is extremely well written and most definitely provides workable solutions to many of the marital problems that are facing countless troubled couples today.

These crucial issues are covered in this guide:

  • The "real" secrets to a healthy, stable, loving marriage.  
  • How marriage counseling can be dangerous to your marriage's future.  
  • Why true intimacy is a lot closer than you think ... and how to get there!  
  • How to deal with problems involving sex or money.  
  • How to begin saving your marriage in less than 10 minutes! 

The following eBook bonus titles are currently supplied with this guide:

  • "Top 5 Things Not to Do When Your Partner Wants Out".  
  • "The Quick Start Guide to Saving Your Marriage".  
  • "Dealing With Anger and Resentment".  
  • "Rules For Fair Fighting Report".

The following mp3 audio bonus titles are also currently supplied with the guide: 

  • "Coping with a Mid Life Marriage Crisis".  
  • "Recovering From an Affair". 

The fact that Baucom is a counselor in real life and not just an author (like so many of the other marriage guide publishers) certainly shines through in this guide. He has an easy writing style and has gone out of his way to make the entire program simple to follow and very understandable.

RECONCILIATION  GUIDES - OUR NUMBER ONE RECOMMENDATION
FOR THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY PARTED AND DESPERATELY WANT TO RECONCILE WITH THEIR EX PARTNER


2nd Chance2nd Chance

Reviewers: Brad and Michelle Ritchie

Compiled by Mirabelle Summers and Amy Waterman.

Mirabelle and Amy have provided separate male and female editions of this guide in recognition of the fact that men and women have entirely different approaches to relationships. They contend that to be succesful with the reconciliation process there is a definite need to understand how the mind of the opposite sex works.

Review Summary 

This guide is practical, straightforward and and easy to follow.
 It is as relevant to unmarried relationships as it is to married ones.

We have reviewed many guides that suggest quite nonsensical approaches to reconciliation, Mirabelle and Amy's guide however covers all the essential steps necessary to maximize your chances of getting your ex back, without the begging, manipulation, or silly games that many people play or that other authors suggest.

The problem we have found over many years of dealing with relationship breakups is that when endeavoring to get an ex back often a persons first instincts and actions in this regard are the ones that are likely to do the most damage.

Begging, crying, pleading, threatening, getting another partner to make them jealous, doing anything to get the attention you are craving, are all things that are going to reinforce the fact that the breakup was the right thing to do.

If you are serious about rescuing your relationship and winning back the love of your ex partner then to our mind this 6-step plan is going to deliver something pretty substantial.

When we took a look at how much genuine and totally workable information is in these guides we were truly impressed.

This is no ordinary ebook. At a whopping 174 pages, it's much, much more.

RECONCILIATION  GUIDES - OUR NUMBER TWO RECOMMENDATION
FOR THOSE WHOSE RELATIONSHIP IS BROKEN OR IS LACKING TOGETHERNESS AND LOVE


Win Back LoveWin Back Love

Reviewers: Brad and Michelle Ritchie

Compiled by Annalyn Caras.

This Guide is written for couples who are still together but only just and also for those couples who have already broken up and either one or both are desperate for reconciliation. 

In "Win Back Love"  Annalyn provides a detailed 7 step strategic blueprint into how these major problems can be resolved and love and togetherness returned to the relationship.

Review Summary 

Annalyn's claims in herblueprint that success in winning your love back is almost certain to be yours in 21 days or less. However our experience in relationship mending is that this claim is rather optimistic. Her techniques as described are very effective, however we would not expect real results for perhaps a couple of months.

Her guide lacks the nonsense and fluff associated with many of the other guides that we reviewed and is straightforward and and easy to follow.

It provides practical and detailed advice on solving many common relationship problems particularly those involving lack of real intimacy and love.

Annalyn outlines in an easy to follow style just how simple it can be to restore love and affection in your relationship.

Several of our relationship troubled clients who found themselves in a loveless marriage, have employed with great success, several of the bonding techniques that Annalyn recommends in her book.

This is a great guide for those who want to enhance or restore marital love.

CHEATING GUIDES - OUR NUMBER ONE RECOMMENDATION
FOR THOSE WHO SUSPECT THAT THEIR PARTNER IS CHEATING ON THEM AND WANT TO KNOW HOW TO  FIND OUT IF IT'S REALLY TRUE

How to Catch a Cheating SpouseHow to Catch a Cheating Spouse

Reviewers: Brad and Michelle Ritchie

This in depth guide has been compiled by Sarah Paul who is a dating and relationship counselor and author.

Her "How to Catch a Cheating Spouse" course is an established and time tested product that has been selling online successfully for a number of years.

Review Summary 

Although not strictly a marriage saving guide we have included this product because we have found that the majority of people who had purchased it had discovered to their delight that their suspicions were unfounded. To that end we guess you could say that it did indeed help to save marriage.

Included with the two "How to Catch a Cheating Spouse" ebooks, is a bonus tracking software package that usually retails for $99!

The cheating spouse main ebook was what impressed us at first. 126 pages of material, which was much more than we had anticipated from an ebook.

There is a heap of great advice and information, which covers points from behavioral changes, to covert surveillance, to detecting lies, accidental slip-ups, finances, and some thought-provoking facts and figures to put all this behavior in context.

A really cool bonus for those of you that are a little less computer savvy is the "Spy Gadgets & Surveillance Made Easy" bonus book.If you have limited knowledge of the computer or internet, this book is a great way to get you up to speed on what your spouse is doing on the computer and how to track it.

It teaches both basic and advanced monitoring skills, as well as telephone monitoring, room and audio monitoring, video surveillance, webcam and spy cam, as well as a number of other tracking systems and chemical tests.

And if that wasn't enough, Sarah has generously decided to throw in Sherlock Pro, a computer tracking software package. You can record keystrokes, websites visited, and screencaps, and have the benefit of having the results emailed to you. It lacks some of the features of more highly priced tracking applications, but for a free bonus it's pretty comprehensive and gives some good results.

And if there are any lingering doubts or questions, Sarah offers a free consultation with a member of the team.

For frustrated spouses who want to get the truth and put and end to the doubt and despair of not knowing, we would recommend this course as a valuable first step.

Hi Brad & Michelle...
My wife left me just over three months ago and for the last several weeks I have been trying really hard to get her back.
I just wanted you to know that she has now come home and we have made up.
Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to all my emails with suggestions and support.
I believe that my following your advice to the letter made all the difference and most definitely led to her change of heart.

Hello Michelle...
I wonder if you remember the occasion last month when I emailed you about my partner cheating on me?
I have to admit that I was really in a state of shock because we have always had such a great relationship - lots of fun and intimacy. 
He said that he really loved me and that he stupidly just gave in to temptation. 
You pointed me in the right direction and I am very grateful for your advice.
I have now given Ryan another chance to redeem himself. Hopefully he won't let me down again.
Very kind regards

Dear Brad & Michelle... 
This is short message to let you know that after following your advice Richard and I have patched up our differences.
I know that it is not going to be a smooth ride but we are both keen to start over again and work hard on keeping our family together.
Your help is really appreciated.

Hi Brad...
When I last emailed you I must admit that I was really quite despondent about whether it was possible for my wife and I to patch up our long standing and quite serious differences.
Thank you for putting me back on track. You made me realize that I was the one at fault and that a total change in attitude was required.
Now my wife says that she can't believe how I have been able to transform myself back into the person that I used to be so many years ago.
I'm so grateful for your help.

Hi Michelle & Brad...
When you emailed me back with your advice on how I should approach the matter of my husband's growing and very concerning indifference to me and the children I must admit that initially I wasn't convinced that your unusual tactic would work.
However I gave it a go and hey presto - what a difference a day makes.
All of a sudden he has opened up to me and we are now back on the same wavelength.
Thanks a million guys.

Hi Michelle...
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me the encouragement to sort out our marriage issues.
I've got to say that it has been an uphill struggle but I think that we are getting there at last.
James has even suggested that we go away for a romantic break.- I didn't think that he had a romantic bone left in his body. The change in his attitude is utterly amazing.
Thank you once again.
