Strengthening Existing Relationships: Overcoming Disappointment with Dr. Laura Berman
For those in relationships, Valentine’s Day and other high-pressure occasions can often lead to disappointment. Dr. Berman advises communicating effectively rather than harboring resentment.
How to Address Relationship Disappointments:
- Be Clear on What You Want – Instead of focusing on what went wrong, communicate what would make you feel loved and appreciated.
- Express Gratitude for Effort – Acknowledge what your partner does well and suggest how they can enhance their gestures in a way that aligns with your needs.
- Set Relationship Resolutions – Just as people make New Year’s resolutions, couples can set goals for how they want to show up for each other throughout the year.
