Communication Gap: The Silent Killer of Marriages
- •Many marriages appear fine externally, but a silent distance often grows between partners due to unaddressed issues.
- •A communication gap doesn't happen suddenly; it starts with small unsaid words, postponed conversations, and habitual silences.
- •Assuming partners will understand without being told leads to disappointment and misunderstanding, as everyone has different perspectives.
- •Postponing difficult conversations, often in anger, causes issues to accumulate and escalate into bigger arguments later.
- •Fear of arguments, ego, and distractions like mobile phones and busy lifestyles further contribute to the breakdown of effective communication.
Why It Matters: Silence, unexpressed expectations, and ego are the biggest destroyers of marital communication.
