“Dr. Cheryl, why do our arguments get so nasty?”

“We talk, but we never make progress. What’s the key to communication?”

“How can we argue without fighting?”


This episode of Sex, Love & Elephants is the third in a series about the rumored demise of long-term love. I'll be sharing my own expertise on the subject as well as interviewing experts in the field about love, sex, and communication.


“I can't stand you.” “I'm out of here.” “What are we even doing together?” 

If any of these sound familiar to you, you might just be wondering if long-term love is dead after all. 


Today, I'm going to dive into the fact that long-term kind speech, civility, and respect aren’t dead, but they may be on life support.
