- Communication
- Conflict resolution
- Companionship and Sex
COMMUNICATION
Communication is and remains at the forefront of any relationship. Including yours. Wait. Hold on. Not just communication, but effective communication that enables you to speak in love, and forbids you from bringing up the past. There is another significant point you need to pay attention to when it comes to the matter of communication in marriage. The issue of timing. If you want to discuss important things with your spouse, timing is key. Try as much as possible to get the timing. Don’t talk about serious matters when your husband is in a very bad mood. Let us use this as a case study, if your husband has a bad day at work, don’t try to talk to him about having a child after he comes back from work. This is the trick to effective communication, waiting for the best timing, will get the best results from both of you. Apart from this, make sure your husband is listening. This is it, although some people claim that men have a short attention span, but don’t let us generalize. When you discuss a matter of little significance such as what color of curtains you should get, your husband may not be listening. Your husband may have trouble concentrating when you are discussing curtain textiles just as you may have trouble concentrating when he is discussing football highlights with you. That apart, you should learn the attitude of straight-talking. Men are not mind readers and a mistake you can make as a wife is to assume that your husband should know what is going on in your mind. Sometimes, just save yourself the emotional drama and just go straight to the point when talking with your husband. After you say all, make sure you have time to listen to his comments about the matter too. Everything you say is in a way, your opinion, and once you finish, it is your husband’s turn to state his opinion and it is your turn to listen to him without interruption. This, itself, is a major attribute of a spectacular wife, but, as you can guess, it doesn’t end there. There are more strategies you need to know.
