Many of us expect our partners to be mind readers

[00:00:00]Number three is we expect our partners to be mind readers.

[00:00:05]We believe that if they're in love with us, that they should know.

[00:00:12]But that's the furthest thing from the truth.

[00:00:15]Our partners are not mind readers.

[00:00:18]It is our responsibility to let our partners know how they can make us happy. We need to give them a road map.

[00:00:28]Your wants and needs can only be met if you are brave enough to let your partner know what those needs are.

[00:00:37]Not by complaining, but by revealing your hidden desire, because underneath every complaint is a hidden desire.

[00:00:47]Love [snorts] literacy, that's what you need.

[00:00:50]I never knew the skills that love required, but now I do, and I know the difference that it's made in my relationship with my husband, Brian. All marriages have challenges, mine, yours, and everyone else's.

[00:01:05]My name is Michelle, and I am challenging your beliefs about love and marriage.

[00:01:11]Because our partners aren't failing us, our understanding of love is.

[00:01:17]I'm here every day to help you elevate your marriage mindset and challenge those deep-seated beliefs that you have.

[00:01:26]And remember, just because you don't feel loved does not, I repeat, does not mean that you are not loved.

[00:01:35]Your voice matters. I care about what you think, and you can help by filling out an anonymous study that I've created to gather data about the marriage expectation gap.

[00:01:51]Love literacy are the relationship skills that we were never taught that love requires.

[00:01:59]I'll see you here again tomorrow. Mwah.
