The husband is to blame also, instead of listening-- they lack attention to their wife. And when they start talking they wanted their wife to listen intently. To keep the relationship strong and bonded, respect must always be present. Because if you respect your spouse, you would try everything to keep your words in its proper timing. You do not hurl bad words and you would also listen to his side of opinion. Words of love and optimism must always be in your talk because it brings positive input to your relationship. Instead of starting the sentence with a problem, start it with an opinion for solution for the problem. In that way you spark the interest of your spouse with positive attention.
