Marriage may be a two-way street, but doesn’t mean you should travel in opposite directions. Experts know what steers good marriage; here are some couple-strengthening tips:
Talk, but don’t talk back.Tell your partner how you feel and what you need. When you are the listener, don’t criticize, debate, dismiss or problem-solve. Recognize that your partner’s concern are as important as yours.
Be Optimistic. Keep your comments positive – even when discussing problems- and make the effort to remember and appreciate the good in your relationship.
Learn to leave an argument before it’s out of control. Tactics including cracking a joke, showing appreciation and backing down
Share your dreams. And find a way to help your spouse realize his or hers.
Be flexible. When your spouse asks you to be accommodating, try.
Go on a date. Couples need time as twosomes, to reconnect.
