Q & A: My Spouse Won't Say, "I Love You."

Q & A: My Spouse Won't Say, "I Love You."

What do you do when your spouse just won't say those three little words, "I love you"? A listener wrote in with this exact issue, sharing how her husband never actually says "I love you," even though it's her love language. She's looking for some advice, and I can actually relate to this.

It's important for us to hear "I love you," especially as children. I share a bit about my experience vs my hubby, Shaun's experience with these words. I also give you tips on how to use "I statements" to let your spouse know what you need without making them feel attacked. The key is explaining how you feel and what you need in a way that encourages positivity and open communication.

I also gave some advice to all you parents out there. Even if your kids roll their eyes or just hit you with a "thanks" or a text like, keep telling them you love them! It helps create a sense of belonging that we all need.

If you want to chat more or have questions you want me to tackle in a future episode, DM on Instagram or swing by my website. I’d love to hear from you!
