July 30, 2023
Join Aleeza and Rabbi in this insightful episode as they address a common question from listeners: "What should I do if my partner isn't listening to me?" As dating experts, they provide valuable tips on how to enhance communication in your relationship and effectively deal with this challenging situation. Discover practical advice to create a stronger connection and understanding between you and your partner. Key Points: Check the timing. Are you approaching your partner when they're busy or distracted? If so, they may not be able to give you their full attention. Talk in person. Don't try to have a serious conversation from different rooms or over the phone. It's important to be able to see each other's facial expressions and body language. Be respectful. Don't interrupt your partner when they're speaking or talking over them. This will only make them feel unheard and disrespected. Be patient. It may take some time for your partner to learn how to listen to you better. Be patient and understanding, and continue to communicate your needs. Additional Thoughts: Ask for help from an outsider. If you're struggling to communicate with your partner, you may want to consider talking to a therapist or counselor. They can help you learn how to communicate more effectively and resolve any underlying issues. Remember that everyone is different. What works for one couple may not work for another. It's important to find what works best for you and your partner. Overall, the key to communicating effectively with your partner is to be respectful, patient, and understanding. If you can do these things, you'll be well on your way to resolving any communication problems you may be having.
