Late Evening Habits.

 

Make some time for each other at the end of the day. Even just 15 minutes. Talk and listen. Share 3 good things from your day. Allow your partner into your inner world. Laugh together.

 

This simple practise of talking well in the good times means it is more likely that talking over contentious issues when they arise, will be less destructive and more constructive.

 

'Couples who have a 'sit down, look at me, let's talk' time each day have a higher level of intimacy than those couples who simply talk, 'whenever, wherever.'

Dr. Gary Chapman

 

So. Switch off the mobile. Stop texting. Put away the Blackberry. Create a better end-of-the-day, late night habit.
