8 for the escalator today discussing marriage.
We talked about what doesn’t go well in our marriages and took tips from each other on ways to improve. Conversation was lively with many similarities and knowledge shared.
Some takeaways include:
Prioritize date nights and alone time
Conversation is key, have grace and empathy
Think about your significant others love language
During disagreements or arguments, paraphrase the others thoughts to diffuse, show you are listening and ask questions, do not come out throwing daggers at one another.
Ask each other questions such as
“how am I doing as a spouse/husband/wife” humble yourself to the answers and have a dialogue.
Or
“How can I love you better (or love you today)” this one is non-sexual guys. The meaning behind it is “what do you NEED from me as a husband” I used it last week and it opened up a great conversation on stress.
Lastly, the kids eventually grow up and move away, find commonalities and set aside time to share your life. If you don’t do it now it may be too late. – we all know this to be true but who is taking action in it.
I was blessed to be at the table for this one. Next week Astro has the Q and it’s going to be another powerful conversation on another important topic.
Grab a spot on the Q sheet. There’s plenty available.
