10 Communication Skills For Couples by BrainnewsNg(f): 8:26pm On Nov 22, 2017 |
A lot of times, couples get pissed off with each other by the way they respond to spoken words. We can do better if we learn response in the *affirmative* and not in the *combative*.
Read the following:
1. *Statement:* I’m really hungry. – *Wrong response:* Even I myself have not eaten since morning. – *Right response:* Oh sorry, let’s see if there’s something you can manage for now.
2. *Statement:* Why don’t you try this option? – *Wrong response:* Why is it that you always find fault with what I do? – *Right response:* Well, I’ve tried this before and I think it will work. If not, I’ll try that.
3. *Statement:* I want more food. – *Wrong response:* Ha-ha, rice has finished, garri has finished, and ingredients are almost finished, and there’s no sign of salary yet. – *Right response:* Sorry, please manage that for now; I’ll find some snacks for you later.
4. *Statement:* I can’t finish this food. – *Wrong response:* Ha-ha, things are expensive o; and you can’t be wasting food like this. You will eat it tomorrow! – *Right response:* Should I keep the rest for you, or give it out?
5. *Statement:* I got wounded in kitchen. – *Wrong response:* I’ve told you to always be careful with the knife. – *Right response:* Oh sorry, let me have a look. You need to be more careful next time.
6. *Statement:* Are you okay; is anything the matter with you? – *Wrong response:* Can’t you see yourself; what kind of question is that? – *Right response:* I’m not feeling fine; I think I need some attention.
7. *Statement:* I’ll like to eat corn flakes. – *Wrong response:* No way! It’s for the children; and that’s for one month! Take garri if you are hungry. – *Right response:* Okay, you can eat a little. I trust you’ll give us money to stock another.
8. *Statement:* Haven’t you finished what you are doing? – *Wrong response:* You are seated there doing nothing and you are asking if I’ve not finished! – *Right response:* It will still take a while; can you please lend me a hand?
9. *Statement:* I bought this on my way; I thought it will be useful. – *Wrong response:* How much did you buy it? What! That’s too expensive – wọ́n ti gbá ẹ! – *Right response:* Thank you; it will indeed be useful. Thanks for the surprise.
10. *Statement:* Handle that thing carefully please. – *Wrong response:* Am I that daft? You will just be instructing me as if I don’t have any sense. – *Right response:* Yes dear, I will.
*_A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger._* Prov 15:1.
* Please send to your spouse and other couples, not for the purpose of condemnation, but for continuous improvement of your/their love relationship* Source: https://www.brainnewsng.com/10-communication-skills-couplesLalasticlala 1 Like 1 Share |

Very interesting...a lot of people will try to undermine the importance of good affirmative communication and they come online to seek pity for their relationships. |
