There is obviously something very wrong in your marriage to cause your spouse to have thoughts of ending things. It is important that you convince your spouse to stay in the marriage to prevent your marriage from falling apart totally. For you to be successful in your efforts, you need to take action right now, before things go from bad to worse between you and your spouse.
Think very carefully about what it is that both you and your spouse are doing that could be having an adverse effect on your relationship. Once you have established what the problems could be, tell your spouse that you would like to have a serious discussion about the state of your marriage. In other words, you are going to try to convince your spouse to stay in the marriage.
A really great way to start off this discussion is for you to apologize to your spouse. Say that you have only just realized that you have not been behaving as you should be towards him/her, and want to do all you can to correct this problem. This might just be enough to convince your spouse to stay in the marriage, but don't stop there.
There could be a few things that are making your spouse unhappy, so ask him/her straight out what it is that you are doing to cause such negative feelings. Your spouse will probably grab this opportunity to get all the problems out in the open. Don't interrupt at all - listen very carefully to what he/she is saying, and then talk about what you are going to do to fix things.
Once your spouse has had his/her say, tell your spouse just how much you love and need him/her. Tell him/her that you cannot bear the thought of ever living without him/her, and are more than willing to do what it takes to convince him to stay in the marriage.
Make an effort to communicate regularly from now on and also be as loving and attentive as possible towards your spouse. Your spouse needs to know exactly where he/she stands with you and, if you tell him/her all the time, this will definitely be enough to convince your spouse to stay in the marriage.
