Honesty is the best policy

Are you miffed at your wife?  Do you realize that she may have no idea that she offended you?  It is commonly said there are really three views in every circumstance:  what you perceived, what the other person perceived, and what actually happened.

You see, your wife may have a completely different outlook on that same situation, which is why it pays to be honest with her about your feelings. Seeing her point of view may alleviate some of your stress, while having her recognize your feelings will help her to be more sensitive in that area in the future. 

Take a minute to take our Marriage Checkup. It will help you with your communication skills.

Huddle up and ask your wife tonight: Would you like to take a quiz that will help strengthen our marriage?

Here is a link to an article entitled, "The Most Useful Communication Technique of All Time." It has also been called "reflective listening", Stephen Covey calls it "Seek First to Understand." Basically you be quiet and actually listen to the other person and then let them know what you heard. Bob Hazleton - Author Dads Matter www.dadsmatter.com
