Break the cycle of avoidance in your relationship from "summary" of The Sex-Starved Marriage by Michele Weiner Davis
Avoidance is a common strategy used by couples who are struggling in their relationship. When there is tension or conflict, it's easy to avoid dealing with it in the hopes that it will go away on its own. However, this only leads to a cycle of avoidance that can be damaging to the relationship in the long run. Breaking the cycle of avoidance means facing the issues head-on and addressing them openly and honestly. This requires both partners to be willing to have difficult conversations and make changes in order to improve the relationship. It may feel uncomfortable or scary at first, but avoiding the issues will only lead to more problems down the line. To break the cycle of avoidance, it's important for both partners to be willing to take responsibility for their part in the issues at hand. This means being able to communicate openly about their feelings, needs, and desires, and being willing to listen to their partner's perspective as well. It's also important to create a safe and supportive environment for these conversations to take place. This means setting aside time to talk without distractions, being respectful and non-judgmental, and being open to feedback and criticism. By creating a safe space for communication, both partners will feel more comfortable opening up and working through their issues together. Breaking the cycle of avoidance takes time and effort, but the rewards are well worth it. By facing the issues in your relationship head-on, you can build a stronger and more fulfilling connection with your partner. It may not be easy, but it is necessary in order to create a healthy and happy relationship.
