How can I build emotional support in my relationship?

Building emotional support involves open communication, active listening, and being present for each other. What specific areas are you looking to improve?

I think we struggle with communication. Any tips?

Absolutely! Try setting aside time each week to talk without distractions. Use 'I' statements to express feelings and encourage your partner to share their thoughts.

That sounds helpful! What if my partner is not open to talking?

If your partner is hesitant, approach the topic gently. You might express your feelings about wanting to connect more and ask if there's a better time for them to talk.

Thanks! I’ll try that. Any other ways to show support?

You can show support by validating their feelings, offering help when needed, and engaging in activities that strengthen your bond, like shared hobbies.
