Are you and your spouse talking, but clearly not hearing each other? Or have you and your spouse grown apart and aren’t talking as much as you used to? Either way, communication is vital for a healthy marriage. Here’s how to revive it.
One of the things I hear people say is that they don't know how to communicate. But you do know how to communicate. You're just doing it poorly.
Many women I have interacted with recently have been asking questions like, "what can I do to be a better mom? What can I do to be a better woman in my career? What can I do to be a better wife?"
If a couple would stop doing these four things when they disagree, then their chance of divorce decreases by 85%.
Many times, when we are in a situation with our spouse where there's been an error, there's been a struggle, we're in conflict, or they've done something that we don't like, it's a place where we want to confront them.
The challenge to pursue your spouse daily can be difficult at times, but if you remain grounded in a healthy foundation of communication and quality time, you will both be better for it!
If your spouse seems more cold and distant, it’s concerning. Everyone wants to have a good, warm relationship with their spouse; one where you’re enjoying your interactions, so it makes sense to feel concerned if you notice your spouse distancing themselves from you.
If you really want to understand your wife better than you do now- or if you want your husband to better understand you than the way he does now- there are three steps that men need to take.
If you’ve been trying NO CONTACT and feel stuck, confused, or don’t even know what to do next this is for you.
I'm going to share three concepts and three action steps that can help your marriage come together when you experience the loss of a loved one. (These three principles and three action steps apply to all kinds of losses. Whether a couple loses a child, or one spouse loses a family member, or a spouse loses their child and their spouse lost a stepchild.)
So, you stopped contacting your spouse. And now you're trying this thing called “No Contact” to try and get your spouse back. You're trying it to get them to see what they’re missing. You hope that they'll want you back and that they will come crawling back to you… Or at least, that's what you've heard.
