When you approach people with a problem and you just want them to listen, it can disappointing when they offer solutions or minimize your challenging emotions.
Friends or family members sometimes try to reframe the issue to make the distress or sadness go away. It might sound like…“it’s not a big deal” or “there’s plenty of fish in the sea”, “you’ll be fine!” Unfortunately, it only shows that THEY can’t handle this emotion with you or seeing you like this is difficult for them.

Your emotion is never a problem and always valid. It provides us with information on coping techniques, degree of distress that is tolerable, and your belief about yourself. It’s information even if it feels inappropriate logically.

The truth is: Connection is the solution. It is healing during hard times. Validating and Connecting. Adults and kids alike require this approach to regulate emotions and challenge yourself.

Before you say “I do”… say everything else.
Talk about bills.
Parenting styles.
Credit, debt, religion.
How you handle conflict.
How you love, how you argue, how you heal.
Talk about childhood wounds.
Mental health. Family health.
What beliefs your kids will grow up with.
Sexual expectations.
Financial goals.
Dream homes. Dream jobs.
Politics.
Everything.
Because love is beautiful — but it’s not a blueprint.
You don’t build a life on sparks.
You build it on understanding.
So talk now.
Talk deeply.
Talk honestly.
Love is the foundation — but communication is the structure.
