My greatest regret is lack of communication personally for me at home with hubby. As we age our needs have changed and evolved. I do have lived experience with marriage communication styles.
Change is an interesting concept maybe it isn’t change but rather your needs are different? Like love you have to extend it to receive it much like trust I do agree with that definitely.
i am so sorry you are arguing and it is tough to deal with long term.
Yes I feel I have done it however both of us work at it every single day … and it’s not perfect. It is an ongoing process even after 22 years of marriage.
What does love mean to you?
I personally believe that love is more than just a feeling it is what you do the actions that show you care.
It might not be exactly big moments in romantic movie 🎥 but it would be pouring up coffee in the morning, making the dessert your partner likes, reminder to drive carefully in the snow ❄️ etc and yes it is also the big things too❣️ It is feeling appreciated and cared for and the things you do to show you care that is love.
Ever consider in the communication process? How your communication is received? I mean is .., by what you say, how you say and even non verbal signals??
They all inform the receiver aka your spouse. It is known the message is in receiver how it is interpreted.
Sorry got rambling just some thoughts on love, and communication.
i am glad you are researching resources that is a great & I hope you find some inspiration along the way …
