Being Passive Aggressive Means THIS is Missing In Your Marriage Episode 91


Listen Later

Have you ever found yourself or your partner avoiding direct or clear communication, evading problems, fearing intimacy or competition, making excuses, blaming, playing the victim, feigning compliance with requests, being sarcastic, or hiding anger? 

All of these behaviors describe being passive aggressive! You might not have thought of this at first, but there are many couples that are experiencing this right now in their marriage. 

This topic even comes from patterns we saw in our couples group, so we put up a poll, and this topic was voted on to be this week's topic. 

In this episode you will take away: 

  • How to recognize the passive aggressive patterns
  • The 3 reasons why this happens within a relationship
  • 4 things that could be missing so that you do not do not have this pattern start or continue in your own marriage.
