We are both very direct people and we talk a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743354 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 16:24:32 +0000 pl0508 743354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Needs work. We have completely different methods of communication and working through problems. The biggest issue is I tend to over communicate and he gets tired of hearing me OR he doesn't want to talk at all. Boo!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743341 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 16:22:55 +0000 rattles 743341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think this is definitely one of our strengths. We were long-distance for three years while I was in law school, and I think this was one of the biggest benefits that carried over into our marriage. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743259 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:56:41 +0000 TemperanceBrennan 743259@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We could be better - but I think I do a good job of realizing when I might not acting completely reasonable but still feel frustrated or angry.<br /> I try to never say "I'm fine" or answer "nothing's wrong" when something is bothering me. I usually say something and sometimes I have to preface it with I know this might be unreasonable, but it's how I feel. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743245 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:54:24 +0000 Weagle 743245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pretty darn good, and definitely mostly thanks to DH. He is a VERY good communicator 95% of the time, and I've learned a lot from him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743241 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:54:05 +0000 IRunForFun 743241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's pretty good, actually, although I've had to work with him to make it even better. He has a tendency to hold things in because he hates complaining and he's very sensitive to my feelings, so if something is bugging him, he won't mention it so as not to insult me. It sounds nice, in theory, but if he doesn't tell me what's wrong, I can't change or fix it!</p> <p>So now he's gotten better at talking things out immediately and I feel like we've got good communication on our side. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743226 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:51:29 +0000 pui 743226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd say pretty darn good. Not perfect, but good enough for now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743222 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:50:48 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 743222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's really good! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743215 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:50:02 +0000 LuLu Mom 743215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ever since having DD we have greatly improved our communication, I used to be the guilty one of holding everythign in and then exploding at a small thing due to the build up. DH was gulity of taking his bad days out on me, now we discuss everything to avoid these disagreements, it has helped GREATLY! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743214 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:49:55 +0000 lovehoneybee 743214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With DH, excellent. But it took a long time to get to this point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743213 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:49:54 +0000 .twist. 743213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaJ: I do this too!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743211 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:49:40 +0000 MrsBrewer 743211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours needs work </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743208 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:48:55 +0000 MamaJ 743208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try to communicate but sometimes I feel like I'm nagging about certain things. So sometimes I don't say anything then get pissed all by myself haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743207 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:48:42 +0000 .twist. 743207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours have definitely gotten better over time. There are still certain issues that need more communication, like anything to do with his ex, which he sometimes forgets that I should also have a say in certain things, like schedules for the boys or how much "extra" money we can spend on them.</p> <p>For the most part, we communicate pretty well though about finances and child rearing and stuff like that.</p> <p>Although, there is ALWAYS room to improve. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-743202 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:48:11 +0000 tinyperson 743202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Us too! Definitely needs improvement... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-good-is-your-communication#post-741486 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:45:00 +0000 DillonLion 741486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Communication skills between DH and I could use some SERIOUS work. How about you guys? </p>
