My Advice: COMMUNICATION IS KEY
Let me advise you with love and wisdom:
Don’t assume—communicate. Many relationships break down not because people don’t care, but because they stop talking clearly and listening intentionally.
If something bothers you, speak up early and calmly. If you are confused, ask questions instead of drawing conclusions. Silence may feel safe, but it often creates misunderstanding. Honest and respectful communication, on the other hand, brings clarity and peace.
Learn to listen as much as you speak. Effective communication is not about winning an argument; it is about understanding each other. Choose your words carefully, speak with humility, and listen with empathy. When you communicate well, you protect your relationship from unnecessary tension and strengthen the bond you share.
Remember this: what you don’t explain can be misinterpreted, and what you don’t discuss can damage trust. If you value the relationship, keep the lines of communication open—because communication is the bridge that keeps hearts connected.
