Speaking Openly Has Power
Why Communication Matters:
Communication is the foundation of any strong relationship. This supports partners to express themselves with their likes, dislikes or fears. This makes both people feel that they are being heard and seen, which brings a closeness and level of trust between the parties. Misunderstandings, full stop resentment occurs and leads to conflict without effective communication.
Communication Is Key How to Communicate
Learn how to listen attentively — active listening is the key component of getting your message across effectively. That means truly listening to your partner, validating their point of view, and then responding with care. Do not interject or think about how you will answer back while they are talking. You can also reflect back what you think is being said to ensure that you are on the same page, which also shows a certain amount of empathy.

Create a judgement free zone to allow open expression from both partners. If you find it useful, seek out professional help — such as couples therapy — to address your communication problems.
Trust and Communal Respect
Trust in Relationships
Trust is the cement that binds relationships. It means having faith in your spouse’s competency, goodwill and trustworthiness. Trust is the foundation without which mistrust, doubt and land-armageddon would proceed to destroy.
Trust Build On How to Get — and Keep — It
Trust does not grow overnight; it demands time and a steady level of commitment. Act and speak with transparency and honesty. Honour your promises, and meet your commitments. A part of trust is knowing when to respect the boundaries by giving your partner benefit of a doubt rather than immediately jumping to negative conclusions
Dealing with Broken Trust
Once this trust has been violated, it may take a long time to rebuild that trust and effort from both partners. Allow hurting and healing to coexist. However, open dialogues about what went wrong and how to defend against future breaches can help mend the linkage. Restoring the trust is a challenge but is achievable if you really want it to be done.
Getting Quality Time
How Important That Time Spending Together

Such as, “I feel ____when……” rather than “You always…”. This is a style that does not make people defensive and generally helps in understanding.
