Is your relationship bank account overdrawn? Are you withdrawing more from your relationship than you deposit? In this week's show, Del and Barry share how relationships are like bank accounts, where deposits and withdrawals determine the health of your relationship. Positive interactions and gestures build trust, affection, and intimacy, which enhance the quality of the relationship. Conversely, conflicts, neglect, or betrayal act as withdrawals, depleting trust and intimacy. Regular investments of time, effort, and communication are essential to maintaining a healthy balance and stability in relationships.

Do you find you are more critical of your partner than you are of others? If so, you're not alone. On this week's show, Del and Barry discuss the many reasons why many of us hold our partners to a higher standard. Unlike our friendships, we're often more critical of our partners due to emotional intimacy and expectations. Close relationships reveal vulnerabilities and imperfections, magnifying flaws. Moreover, invested emotions can amplify reactions to perceived shortcomings. Despite this, recognizing our biases and fostering empathy can mitigate undue criticism, nurturing healthier dynamics built on understanding and acceptance.

Are you afraid of arguing? Do you think arguing means your relationship is in trouble? On this week's show, Del and Barry discuss how arguing can be good for your relationship if done in a healthy way. Healthy arguing involves respectful communication, active listening, and focusing on understanding rather than winning. It includes expressing emotions calmly, avoiding personal attacks, and seeking compromise. Both partners take responsibility for their actions, acknowledge each other's perspectives, and work towards resolution. Healthy arguing strengthens relationships by fostering empathy, mutual respect, and a deeper understanding of each other's needs and boundaries.
