Let's face it we are all different from one another. That is just how we are made. At times we might wonder what makes you and your spouse think so differently from one another. You might have different views on politics, parenting, sports, money, dating ideas, and the list can go on and on. Sometimes we need to put ourselves in our spouse's shoes to fully understand where they are coming from on certain things. Let's take a trip down memory lane so you can understand a little bit better where you both are coming from!
Option 1: If you live close to where you grew up drive there! See your old house, your old school, where you used to play. While there talk about the memories they have and what life was like back then. This might help you to understand where they are coming from!
Option 2: If you have them, watch home videos of each other
growing up or look at old pictures. Tell stories that you remember about your childhood. Share with each other memories of what it was like growing up in
your family. This might help you to understand where they are coming from!
Relationship Tip:
Talk about your memories you remember. Share your greatest lessons you learned growing up! This might help you gain understanding and empathy for one another in certain situations. Embrace the differences between you and your spouse, they make your marriage fun and unique!
