The Straight Scoop: How To Get Him To Open Up
There is no doubt that an open communication channel is the key for a successful relationship. The question in most cases however is how to get your husband to speak. Women talk about things much more openly than men. So if you are not getting what you want, you might want to consider making some changes.
When is most responsive?
It’s best to approach when you are already engaged in conversation instead of interrupting something else that is going on. Mostly, conversations happen during a meal, in bed or while you are doing something together. These are great opportunities to get him to open up.
Be sensitive
You don’t want to blow a chance just because you lost your patience. Be sensitive to when it is a good time to talk and be careful not to approach when your partner is tired or preoccupied.
Show him how it’s done
It is important to give your partner an example of the time of sharing you are looking for. So whenever possible, look to provide intimate information about your feelings and hopes. Talk about your past experiences, about your fears and your fantasies. This will help him see that sharing is not that bad.
Don’t look back
Men really don’t enjoy lingering on the same, sore topic. If he did something to hurt or offend you and he said he’s sorry, then it’s probably best to accept it and move on.
Try not to judge
You don’t want to get your partner to shut down just because of a cynical remark. Be sensitive to what they are saying and let them fully express their ideas before responding. No matter what his ideas are – let them say it and feel comfortable doing so.
Be a good listener
Once your partner has opened up it is crucial to support that. In most cases is will be very discouraging for him if you get distracted. So make sure to tune off that Blackberry and be attentive and in the moment. Let him speak for himself and try not to jump in to complete his sentences.
We all have similar challenges and are here to support each other. Good luck!
