  1. Talk about the thing that's gone wrong.
    The most important thing you can do when your relationship begins to fall apart is to communicate. No matter how badly you might feel about the state of your relationship, it isn't going to improve unless you start talking about what's gone wrong. If there's been a specific issue that's been causing problems for you both, you'll need to talk about it. Even if you don't think it's a big deal, it's still something that you need to deal with if you want to move forward. Once you've talked about the issues you're having, you can decide what the next step should be. Whether that's fixing the problem or just moving on from it. If you have a lot of problems, you may feel like you need a solution to every single one of them. But, in reality, you just need to talk about the ones that are most important and decide what to do next.

  2. Don't be afraid to ask for what you want.
    When you're in a relationship, you're going to have to ask for things every now and then. Whether it's asking your partner to take out the trash or to help you with the kids, you're going to have to make requests. What's important is that you don't let the fact that you're making a request make you feel bad. If you want your partner to do something for you, just tell them. Don't let your insecurities about being in a relationship make you think that you can't ask for what you want. If you don't ask, you won't get what you want. Your partner isn't a mind reader, and you can't expect them to know what you want unless you tell them. So, if there's something you want from your relationship, don't be afraid to ask for it. Again, you don't need to solve every problem that comes up in your relationship. But, if there's something important to you that you don't feel like you're getting, make sure to let your partner know.

  3. Take a break and give it time.
    If your issues are deeply rooted and you've tried talking to each other but nothing seems to be working, you might want to try taking a break. A break can help you both step back and get a fresh look at what's actually going on. It can help you realize what's actually important and what's just a pressing issue that you've let become bigger than it actually is. Taking a break from your relationship might sound scary, but it can be helpful. It can give both of you time to reflect on your relationship and decide what you want from it. Don't make a break a permanent thing though. Give your relationship enough time to cool off, then sit down and talk about what's gone wrong and what you want to do about it.

  4. Try having more adventure together.
    What is it about your relationship that made you fall in love with each other in the first place? Once you're in a relationship, you're going to find that a lot of the original sparks have faded. That's normal and to be expected. When you have a ton of new experiences and new feelings, they're going to be a lot stronger than the ones you have when you've been together for a long time. But, that doesn't mean that those early feelings have completely disappeared. If you've been in a relationship for a while and you feel like that spark has disappeared, you can try having more adventure together. Adventure can be anything from going on a hike to trying a new restaurant. Anything that gets your hearts pumping a little and reminds you of why you fell in love in the first place is adventure enough.

  5. Don't blame each other; blame the problem.
    If you're in a relationship and things are going wrong, you might start to blame one another. You might feel like the other person is to blame for the problems you're having. The truth is that, most of the time, both of you are probably contributing to the problem. There will be times when you're both to blame. However, it isn't helpful to blame each other for the issues you're having. Blame is just adding to the problem. Instead of blaming each other, blame the problem. It will help you focus on what's actually causing the issues you're having, so you can do something about it.

Conclusion
When your relationship goes wrong, it can be easy to panic and feel like there's no hope for fixing things. But, that's not true! There are lots of ways to improve your relationship when it begins to fall apart. All you have to do is take a look at what can be improved, and you'll find the path to fixing your relationship. If you're in a relationship and things have gone wrong, don't panic. There are lots of ways to improve your relationship when it begins to fall apart.
