Knowing how to get a husband back is something many married women wonder about. If you and your spouse have drifted apart you may feel as though the only option left for the two of you is divorce. It doesn't have to be that way. Marriage is intended to be a lifetime commitment and if you still love your husband you likely still want to spend your life with him. If you're prepared to roll up your sleeves and do some work, you can get him back and even ensure that he's deeper in love with you now than when you two first married.

Understanding how to get back a husband starts with taking a long, hard look at yourself. Regardless of how much we wish we believed it, we all know that men don't leave their wives for no reason. Something has broken down in the relationship between you and your husband and it's up to you to recognize your part in it. You may feel that it's unnecessary or even wrong for you to apologize to him if he's the one seeking a divorce, but you do have to own up to any mistakes you've made. Tell him that you're sorry for your part in the marriage breakdown. Be genuine and sincere with your apology to him.

You also must respect your husband's need to have time apart. As women, our emotions often take control of our actions so it's easy to find yourself pleading with him to come back home or to give the relationship another chance. Don't do it. Men don't find desperate women attractive, especially if those women are their wives. Let him go. Let him see that you're mature enough to accept that things have changed in the relationship. Don't view the time apart as a completely negative thing. Remember that your husband loved you very deeply at one point and some time apart may help him remember that. Many men who think they want their marriage to end realize just how much they love their wives during a separation.  If you can show your husband that you respect his need to be alone right now, he'll feel how much you love him .
