Once you have prayed on your own, pray with your spouse. God will help you care for each other as you honor your marriage vows in sickness and in health. We genuinely want to understand each other, but often get tangled up in the different ways we each express our feelings. Too often in marriage we take for granted that our spouse should know exactly how we are feeling. But that's unfair.
Feelings are too fickle and unpredictable to put that burden on another person.
The following strategies can help you express your feelings in a way that will allow your spouse to understand them. You're driving me crazy. It is tempting to describe dinner with your in-laws as fine or pleasant when actually you were bored and irritated the whole evening. It is tempting to say that you're tired and just want to go to bed when actually you are worried about the finances and afraid to broach the subject. But as hard as this may be, resist the temptation.
