When was the last time you had a good conversation with your spouse that was about more than just your "To-Do" list or to inform them of various obligations? Conversations are important. They are a form of emotional intimacy that all marriages need to keep the foundation of the relationship strong. If you are at a loss as to where to start, let me share some ideas:
1. Begin some investigative conversations. Ask your spouse questions to get them sharing again. These can be about their current day, or their family history, or things they are looking forward to....the sky is the limit. The point is to begin asking questions.
2. Share back with your spouse, once they have begun answering questions. By asking and sharing, you are opening the door to emotional intimacy that will naturally lead to more conversations, just as it did when you were dating.
Make talking with your spouse a priority today and watch the positive affect it will have on your marriage.
