How Can I Love My Wife When I Don't Even Want to Be Around Her?
.svg)
A husband has been dealing with his wife's angry outbursts and his own tendency to withdraw from conflict for the past 15 years. He's afraid of her and doesn't know how to change his behavior. Emerson suggests that he see beyond his wife's anger and understand that it's a cover for her real feelings of longing to be loved unconditionally.
Questions to Consider
- How can a spouse break the cycle of anger and withdrawal in a marriage and begin to demonstrate unconditional love?
- What are some strategies for understanding a spouse’s deepest needs for love and respect, and how can these be put into action?
- How can one effectively communicate with a spouse who exhibits angry outbursts and refuses to take responsibility for their behavior?
- What steps can be taken when efforts to demonstrate unconditional love and respect have failed to soften a spouse’s angry outbursts?
