The eleventh goal of couple communication

The eleventh goal of couple communication consists in consciously deciding the answer you give to your partner’s behavior. In order to do that, you have to move from the automatic pilot way to a consciously prepared way. That will allows you to communicate by being fully aware of the way you communicate. Consequently, you will use the emotions you feel to better communicate with your partner.

When your partner act in a way you don’t like, you often react automatically to her/his behavior. Over the years, these automatic responses have become stronger and stronger.

These automatic behaviors don’t represent your character. They are mental shortcuts your brain has developed to simplify daily interaction with you beloved. Some shortcuts are useful but some others can damage the well-being and happiness of your relationship.

For this reason, the best way not to “suffer” from your partner’s behavior anymore is to choose in advance the way you respond to her/his behavior.

Here are some questions that can help you to take control of your communication by properly using emotions and actions.

Which between my partner’s behaviors cause me the most troubles?

How do I feel when I automatically react to these behaviors?

How should I act differently to feel good despite my partner’s behaviors?

What other meaning could I give to my partner’s behavior to better handle it?

If you answer these questions you will increase your chances to save your couple and improve the quality of your relationship. By conveniently using your emotions and by consciously choosing the way you respond to your partner, you will become responsible again for the future of your relationship.
