Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, so let’s talk emotional intimacy. (We’ll get to THE SEX TALK next week. Think of it as foreplay).

How we relate to those we love dictates so much of our day to day happiness, and it changes over the years. We go through phases that can either draw us closer together or drive us apart.

Like everything worth having, it takes work. So listen in while we talk about daily practices to help us stay connected. Because we can’t get to the sex talk without the connection….

LISTENER QUESTION:

My husband is emotionally unavailable and shut down. He hardly ever remembers my birthday, Mother’s Day, and we never celebrate Valentine’s Day. I long to have emotional intimacy in our relationship. What should I do?

 SMALL GROUP QUESTIONS:

1.  Do you remember when your relationship moved from the honeymoon phase to the disillusionment phase?

2. What courageous conversation do you need to have with your partner?

3.  What rituals of connections do you currently have in your relationship?

4.   What rituals of connections would you like to develop? What’s the first step you can take this week?
