Most people try to take the necessary steps to save the marriage before throwing in the towel or raising the white flag in defeat.

This is even more important of an exercise if there are children involved. The following are some ways to explore if both parties are interested in attempting to save the marriage:

2. Genuinely seeking another chance to make the marriage work is another option to explore in the quest towards saving the marriage.
