The Four Horsemen Of A Relationship


Listen Later

Episode #317

What are the four things that you need to eliminate in your relationship to make sure it won't end?

1. CRITICISM - the attack on someone's character. When you're criticizing, you're actually insulting that person's character. When you criticize your wife, she will either shut down or attack you. The same goes for when your wife criticizes you, you either shut down or attack her because you get hurt and offended.

2. CONTEMPT - the feeling that a person or a thing is beneath consideration, worthless, or deserving scorn. Contempt takes criticism further, to where we actively mock, belittle, or show genuine ugliness towards our partner.

3. DEFENSIVENESS - Sometimes we get defensive when we are accused unfairly. More often, however, it’s something we fall into when we didn’t do something we were supposed to and we feel guilty. We make excuses. Or we shift the blame onto someone else.

4. ??? - Listen and find out!

In this episode, you will learn about the Four Horsemen in a relationship and how you can avoid them to make your relationship last long.
