Spending time
Posted by Doc BW, Wed Oct 08 00:59:00 UTC 2008
As I sat in my office today, talking with a client, I heard a familiar refrain: "All he wants to do is watch the tv. He says he wants to do stuff with the family, but that just means watching his tv shows with him!" This wife obviously doesn't feel very appreciated, and the husband has very little idea. He feels he's being available, but the message being received is "You're not as important as the television to me." So, how do you communicate that you really want to be with someone else? You can say it, but sometimes, for some people, actions speak louder than words. Do you know how to please that special someone in your life? And do you know specifically what you want and need your partner to do to show they care about you? Doc V's survey is constructed to glean some of this information, so feel free to refer back to your survey answers if you're stuck!
Dear Doc,
Thank you for this nudge. I did the survey a few weeks back and nothing changed with my husband and frustration, finally got him to do it (he was surprised by his result) We´re now using the results in our daily interactions with each other, it´s powerful. I´m quality time and he is touch so this simple info has made life sooo much easier :-) Thank you.
Thank you Alesia for the feedback, and I’m pleased to hear that Sense2Love has been of use to you! Feel free to update later how this insight has played out!
