Focus on building trust and emotional intimacy with your partner from "summary" of The Sex-Starved Marriage by Michele Weiner Davis

In order to successfully navigate a sex-starved marriage, it is crucial to emphasize the importance of developing trust and emotional intimacy with your partner. This can be a challenging process, especially if there is a history of hurt or betrayal in the relationship. However, by committing to building a solid foundation of trust and emotional connection, you pave the way for a more fulfilling and satisfying partnership. One key aspect of fostering trust and emotional intimacy is open and honest communication. This means being willing to share your thoughts, feelings, and vulnerabilities with your partner, even if it feels uncomfortable or difficult. By being transparent and authentic in your communication, you demonstrate to your partner that you value their feelings and opinions, which in turn helps to strengthen the trust between you. Another important component of building trust and emotional intimacy is showing empathy and understanding towards your partner. This involves actively listening to their concerns, validating their emotions, and being supportive in times of need. By being there for your partner and showing that you care about their well-being, you create a safe and secure environment where emotional intimacy can thrive. Additionally, it is essential to prioritize quality time together in order to nurture trust and emotional connection. This means setting aside distractions and dedicating time to focus on each other, whether through meaningful conversations, shared activities, or physical affection. By making your partner feel valued and cherished, you reinforce the bond of trust and deepen the emotional intimacy between you.
  1. By focusing on building trust and emotional intimacy with your partner, you lay the groundwork for a strong and resilient relationship. This commitment to openness, empathy, and quality time together not only strengthens the connection between you but also paves the way for a more satisfying and fulfilling partnership.
