Conflict in relationships is often driven by selfishness, and simple communication can prevent unnecessary fights. Emphasizing empathy and teamwork can help couples address differences without escalating into arguments. Regular check-ins, both daily and weekly, keep couples emotionally connected and can thwart emotional withdrawal. Mindfully handling hurts and avoiding assumptions fosters a healthier partnership. Effective communication is key to building intimacy and joy in marriage.
