Love Tip: Good Relationships Start With Open Communication

There is no doubt that an open communication channel is the key for a successful relationship. The question in most cases however is how to get your husband to speak. Women talk about things much more openly than men. So if you are not getting what you want, you might want to consider making some changes.

When is most responsive?

Men are more comfortable expressing themselves when they're don't feel like they're being pressed to talk. If he's enjoying himself, he might be relaxed enough to really open up. That could be after you've played a sport together, enjoyed a wonderful meal, made love, etc.

Be sensitive

Make sure to see what state of mind your partner is in. If he has just returned from a long day and needs to relax than it would probably not be the best time to press him to open up.

Provide a personal example

It is important to give your partner an example of the time of sharing you are looking for. So whenever possible, look to provide intimate information about your feelings and hopes. Talk about your past experiences, about your fears and your fantasies. This will help him see that sharing is not that bad.

Always look ahead

When you choose a topic to open up yourself, make sure it is not something that you had discussed many times before. This might cause him to loose patience and will eventually hurt your cause.

Try not to judge

If your man is finally opening up, allow him to say whatever he feels. If he's got what you'd call a "wacky idea," try to avoid picking it apart. A lot of people, especially men, have "big dreams" that they probably know are just that: dreams...like learning how to fly or living in another country. In reality, there's no harm in dreaming.

Be a good listener

You don't always need to put in your 2 cents when it comes to your partner opening up. Just make sure that you are fully present and avoid getting distracted. Let your partner express their ideas and thoughts and be there to listen and absorb.

We all have similar challenges and are here to support each other. Good luck!
