November 29, 2022
Sure, you might say poor communication is the destroyer of relationships but that's just one portion of what eats away at the fabric of our relationships. In this episode, David Dubé shares what really eats away at the foundations of our relationships and what you can do today to avoid making this mistake.
Relationships are vital to our survival and if you're in a committed relationship and you want your relationship to stand the test of time you MUST avoid this HUGE mistake - and if you haven't avoided it, you must tackle the problem right now!
The destroyer of relationships is resentment and if you want to avoid the results of such things you must begin to do the following things:
The destroyer of relationships is resentment and if you want to avoid the results of such things you must begin to do the following things:
- Know what you're feeling when you're feeling it. If your partner does or says something that produces a feeling of uncomfortability, take notice of it right away.
- Know when to say something. Sometimes you have the feeling but it's the wrong time to express your emotions about it. So, if that's the case write down your thoughts and feelings when you get the time and make sure you set aside time to confront your feelings about the issue with your partner.
- Do NOT sit on your feelings for long. Resentment is built up over time, so not expressing how you feel about something within a reasonable amount of time of the incident is what creates resentment - so DO NOT WAIT too long before sharing your feelings.
- Express yourself. There's NEVER a GREAT time to express how you feel, especially when it makes you feel uncomfortable, however, if you do not express it, when it does finally come out it will likely be in the most inappropriate way and in a very non-appropriate manner in which will hurt both you, your partner and anyone else who's nearby. Not only that but the manner in which your frustration will boil over is bound to have reverberating effects that will shake the core of many of your relationships, not just your partner.
Now you know the destroyer of relationships can be tamed but you have to be the one to tame it.
