The Importance of Listening to Your Partner

Couples can absolutely do this on their own, particularly if they're good, it's staying calm and shifting away from their own perspective to the degree that they can allow in their partners. If you find that it feels impossible to do this, that you can't actually just let their partner talk about the way they feel without wanting to tell them why they're wrong or you know, the same if they're not able to do that for you. That is a great sign that you actually do need the support of a marriage counselor or relationship coach.
