Communicating Emotions Within Your Relationship

Emotions are hard. Knowing, feeling and expressing your emotions can be even harder. In relationships communicating emotions is imperative but can often get overlooked or misunderstood. .
.
At times, most of us wish our partners could just mind-read our feelings and react accordingly. Unfortunately, even the best communicators or lovers are not mind readers. So if you want your partner to know how you’re feeling tell them! If you notice that you’re partner may be having a hard time expressing their emotions - ask! Definitely easier said than done but practice will make a difference. .

If this is something your couple struggles with, learning new and safe ways of communicating emotions to one another can be something to explore in relationship therapy. This can help to develop a new way of communicating emotions within the relationship that feels comfortable.
