Understand each other's perspectives from "summary" of How Not to Hate Your Husband After Kids by Jancee Dunn
To say that I was frustrated with my husband after our son was born would be an understatement. I felt like I was doing everything while he just carried on with his life as usual. It wasn't until we had a heart-to-heart conversation that I realized he was feeling overwhelmed in his own way. He was struggling with the changes just as much as I was, but we were both dealing with it in our own ways.
It was a turning point for us when we decided to truly listen to each other's perspectives. We made an effort to put ourselves in each other's shoes and try to understand where the other person was coming from. This meant setting aside our own assumptions and truly listening to what the other person had to say.
Understanding each other's perspectives didn't happen overnight. It took time, patience, and a willingness to keep an open mind. We had to learn to communicate better and really hear what the other person was saying. It wasn't always easy, but it was worth it to have a more harmonious relationship.
As we started to understand each other's perspectives, we were able to see the challenges we were facing in a new light. We realized that we were both trying to do our best in a difficult situation, and that we needed to support each other rather than pointing fingers.
By understanding each other's perspectives, we were able to build a stronger foundation for our relationship. We learned to empathize with each other's feelings and validate each other's experiences. It brought us closer together and helped us navigate the challenges of parenthood as a team.
