IMPROVE YOUR MARRIAGE
NAGGING
Nagging can't break up a marriage as swift as cheating can
But if it's a frequent problem, it can hurt a marriage
- Usually the more one nags, the faster & farther the other stays away from the one nagging
- If you nag your husband about something on the way to a concert, your evening out may
lose its sparkle before you arrive - If the two of you are trapped in a nagging cycle, you may confuse your nagging to the
point that you think you're 2 people who can't get along - Often one or both of you will start thinking that their spouse doesn't love them
- The problem is not a love loss but an ineffective communication habit
- Think about changing your habit before you dream about changing your partner.
THE NAGGER & THE NAGGED
- You may feel uncared for if your spouse repeatedly rejects your persistent requests
- If you are nagged, you may correctly think that your spouse does not trust you to be responsible in 1 particular area or in many areas
- When nagging becomes a habit, you each may feel like the other doesn't have your back
- Trust erodes not because the nagger & nagged spouse are inherently flawed but because
each is trapped in an ineffective communication pattern
A POSSIBLE SOLUTION
- The nagger clearly states what they want & explains why
- The nagged spouse honestly states their intention & when they will comply
- Each may need to compromise a little, but some trust will begin grow
- This just might be a way to banish nagging from your household
