Communication Is A Chain That Binds You Together

Communication helps you to avoid or resolve misunderstandings between you and your partner. People who do not communicate are not sharing a part of themselves with others and can feel isolated. The only way to settle your resentments or hurtful feelings is to talk about them with your partner. When you do, you would become truly happy in your relationship. Communication is a chain that binds you and your spouse together. Communication is like a rope that ties you into your partner’s life and your partner into your life. It helps you to know who and how your partner is. If there is no communication in your relationship, there is nothing to bind or tie you together. If there is nothing to bind you together, then you have no relationship. Everyone wants to find someone special, someone, who would help give meaning and purpose to their life. But things do not always work out that way which leaves you in a daring situation that could wreck your relationships, and ruin something special. This could mean the natural end of your relationship, but if you want to try and save it, then communication is the key.

Start By Starting

Knowing that your communication pattern is different from your partner’s is very important. You both have come from different families and have different backgrounds. So knowing that you and your spouse have differences in terms of communication patterns and understanding how these differences work is very important. That said, regardless of how your partner communicates with you, or how you communicate with your partner, there are some approaches to communication that are apparently bad and are bound to result in problems. So whether you have only recently married, or have been married for a long time, you and your partner should work towards avoiding these communication mistakes. Traditionally, healthy communication is supposed to be open, honest, and direct. Apparently, this method of expressing one’s feelings doesn’t go down well with anyone. So, it’s best to be clear about what you want. It is fine, even better to speak about your feeling using direct, soft ways. It’s best if they discuss the details of what they need, desire, and even their boundaries. And as you all know, it is very easy to interrupt your partner while they are speaking. What have you asked yourself if interrupting your partner is a good thing to do? When your partner is talking you interrupt, you are in effect telling your partner that what you want to say is more crucial than whatever they are saying. As a matter of fact, how would you feel if someone interrupted you while you were still speaking, indirectly telling you that what you were saying was not important? This is especially true when it is done repeatedly. Also, interrupting your partner during a conversation can damage the rest of the discussion as the person that you have interrupted might start feeling downgraded and upset, thus creating room for resentment and frustration.
