Today, she has a sparkling diamond ring from that very same man who she just recently remarried! She's going to share with us how she attracted him back and what her marriage is like now.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Empowered Wife podcast where it's all about fixing your relationship
0:13.4	without your man's conscious effort so that you feel desired,
0:17.2	taking care of, and special.
0:19.3	Even if your relationship feels completely hopeless, I'm Laura Doyle and today I'm sharing about
0:24.7	how to save your marriage when he won't even try. My guest Christy was married to a
0:30.0	jerk who was always mean to her. Everything she did annoyed him and he didn't respect her.
0:36.1	After 29 years of marriage he fell in love with another woman, quit his job and moved to be with her.

1:36.4	building a life with her and she's already exhausted from all the work she's done on
1:41.5	the relationship and it's apparent he just doesn't care at all.
1:46.4	And he's the one who has the anger problem or who didn't make any effort to spend time with the family or who wanted to separate.
1:54.4	He's the one who left or filed for divorce.
1:57.2	So the idea that she can save the marriage herself seems far-fetched to say the least,
2:02.3	which is understandable. The good news is that I've never
