Press Restart: Overcoming Emotional Fatigue In Your Relationship In 2021
Show empathy
When we’re uncomfortable or hurting, it’s natural to focus only on how we are feeling while forgetting that our partners are suffering as well. Wherever possible, be sure to practice empathy and consider how they may also be affected by present circumstances. Put yourself in your partner’s shoes, because just as we don’t like to feel like we’re not understood or heard, it’s likely true that our significant other feels the same way. So empathy is a must. Don’t be afraid to show it. In fact, make sure you show it and you’ll find that your partner will be grateful for it.
