How to Build Intimacy in a Marriage in 4 Steps

3) Open Talk

The biggest barrier in any marriage is the communication barrier. Remember that open talks are the first step towards building intimacy in marriage. Everyone makes mistakes but what creates further issues; is when they are not dealt with properly. Unresolved problems and misunderstandings are the first steps towards an unhappy marriage which may eventually lead to divorce. Invest more time in open talks with your spouse, rather than discussing these issues with your friends and family. After all, it’s your concern and you have to deal with it yourself.

4) Forgive and Be Forgiven

Forgiving your spouse for their past mistakes is never easy but it’s always a good step to take, for the sake of marriage. It’s easy to get offended and create conflicts in marriage, but it’s very difficult to rectify them. Look at things from your spouse’s perspective and try to understand why they did what they did, that led to this situation. When you can forgive your spouse for the mistakes they made, they will be willing to forgive you when you’re at fault.

Resentment, issues, and misunderstandings can not only affect your marriage life, but also translate into emotional, sexual, and psychological support issues. However, by adhering to these tips, you can take the right steps to building intimacy and love in your marriage once more!
