How Do I Rebuild Emotional Intimacy with My Wife? Part 4 – Why She Still Doesn’t Feel Safe, Even When You’ve Changed


Listen Later

You’ve repented. You’ve changed. You’ve said the right things. So why does your wife still act like she’s waiting for the other shoe to drop?

In Part 4 of How Do I Rebuild Emotional Intimacy with My Wife?, we unpack one of the most frustrating disconnects in marriage recovery: why your internal transformation doesn’t seem to land emotionally with your wife—and what to do about it.

Inside this episode:

  • Why silence looks like emotional abandonment (even if you’re thinking about her)

  • How to express real emotion without crying or acting dramatic

  • What she actually means when she says “you don’t show emotion”

  • Why saying what you’re afraid to feel might be the most intimate thing you’ve ever done

  • How a 5-minute timer can reveal what (and who) really occupies your mind

This is the real work—learning how to verbalize your thoughts, face your fears, and take your internal care and make it visible. If your wife still feels emotionally alone in the marriage, this episode will change everything.
