Communication Skills Training

Quick tip: choosing to treat the negative people around you with love and kindness doesn’t mean that you have to allow yourself to be walked over. Distance is necessary for any relationship, and if someone is having a negative effect on you, you owe it to yourself and your own happiness to be able and prepared to put a bit of distance between them and you. Be brave and be kind, and don’t let people take you away from your resolution to be kind, loving, and to act with integrity, because those things come from inside, not from what other people observe. You don’t need anyone else’s permission or validation to be happy within yourself.

can be achieved through good eye contact, facial expressions, and affirmative body language and vocalizations from both people to indicate that they understand what each other are saying.

Persuasion from their partner to tackle these issues can provoke a defensive reaction in men. Until a man is ready to deal with whatever issues they’re facing, questions and encouragement can do more harm than good. It’s a good idea for women to remind their male partners that they’re there for them whenever they want or need to talk, and then allow them to come to them in their own time when they’re ready.

Whereas women tend to want to talk about their problems in order to work through them, men are much more likely to simply want to forget about them and move on if there’s nothing more they can do. The husband had therefore assumed that his wife would rather not relive her bad day with him by bringing it all back up and talking about it, so instead he works to distract and comfort her rather than giving her what she needs.

Women should try to be there for their husbands and boyfriends, in order to give them an outlet for their emotions and help them to process and understand them.

Many couples find it very difficult to properly communicate with each other. They struggle to find the right words to say or the right state of mind to properly connect at the same time

matter how much you might love your partner, you can’t read their mind. You need to give them the opportunity to tell you how they really feel, and you need to be able to accept whatever they say, regardless of your own private feelings about it
