How can I improve communication in my relationship?

Improving communication involves active listening, expressing feelings openly, and being respectful. What specific issues are you facing?

I often feel misunderstood by my partner.

It's important to clarify your feelings. Try using 'I' statements, like 'I feel hurt when...' to express yourself.

That makes sense. How can I encourage my partner to share more?

Create a safe space for sharing by asking open-ended questions and showing genuine interest in their thoughts and feelings.

What if they still don’t open up?

If they’re hesitant, be patient and let them know you’re there to listen whenever they’re ready. Building trust takes time.
