5 keys to truly connecting with your spouse

2. Don’t make assumptions about how your spouse feels. When we make assumptions we limit our ability to hear and understand their true feelings. 

When we make assumptions instead of talking we are creating unhealthy barriers that block true intimacy. Don’t assume you already know what your spouse is thinking or feeling; ask them. Don’t settle for “I’m fine” as an answer (as I talked about at the top of this article). Get to the root of what’s really going on. Replace assumptions with facts. We men often have a harder time opening up and sharing what we’re really thinking and feeling, but be willing to try. It will make your marriage stronger.
