Were there things that you failed to do leading to the collapse of your first relationship? What triggered the relationship to fall apart? The breakup could not have happened all of a sudden; there must have been small circumstances that piled up and led to the gradual deterioration of the marriage. And when you assess your first marriage, be on the level with yourself. Be open and admit your mistakes. Did you not do enough in your first marriage and what was it that you did not do that you were unable to save the relationship?

Let your partner how you feel and think and encourage your partner to open up to you too. Concede on particular aspects of the marriage, things like the children, money matters, and your whole setup.
