Marriage Communication

Why is marriage communication such a hot topic? Because there are so many people who may be able to communicate very well with their friends, colleagues, bosses, but when it comes to their own spouses, all the wrong buttons get pushed! It has been rightly said that the relationship of marriage is a litmus test-it could very well be a learning ground for you to refine and relearn many spiritual lessons even.

When we think of marriage communication, what comes to mind first would be verbal communication. But there is a deeper, more profound level of communication that affects us all-that of the nonverbal realm. This is where we pick up subtle cues from our partner’s body language. Sometimes more can be gleaned from this than from any number of words spoken. So it is important, in marriage communication, not only to learn to read your partner’s verbal and nonverbal cues, but also be conscious of your own words and tone and the signals you send out.

Sometimes, even the most well-meaning conversation can end up in an argument. Effective marriage communication is the realization that in an argument, nobody wins. It takes two mature individual to be able to compromise in a way that is mutually beneficial. You could also put your partner in a better frame of mind by pointing out the positives in your relationship, before tackling the areas that need improvement.

To have a truly beneficial marriage communication, don’t forget that it is equally important to be a good listener-rephrase what your partner is saying and ask questions if you did not understand it. It is better to ask questions and clear the air than jump to conclusions and end up in a fight because of misunderstandings! Always remember to extend the same courtesy, kindness, and empathy, which you would give to your friends, to your spouse too.

A good marriage communication can never be achieved by talking down to your partner, ignoring or disrespecting his/her views, or by talking sarcastically or rudely. Always remember to stay focused on the issue at hand and not be diverted to issues of the past, when trying to sort out an argument.

For mutually fulfilling marriage communication, it is never too late to devote a few minutes a day on just each other, listening and talking. Take the time out after the kids have slept, switch of the television or computer, and just pay attention to your spouse. Honest and sincere intentions can always pave the way for marriage communication that would be a role model for your friends and children!
