How To Understand A Cold & Distant Spouse (3 Essential Tips)

Maybe you've noticed your spouse seems more cold and distant and you're wondering, "What am I going to do about that? How am I going to handle that?"

First, don't assume that the behavior you're seeing in them is about you. And don't put your self in a negative, defensive mindset. There may be a completely different reason why your spouse appears distant. Maybe it's something from work, maybe it's a conversation they had. Whatever it may be, assume that it's not about you.

Next, you can learn more about what's going on. You can ask your spouse, "It appears that we seem a little disconnected. Is something wrong or did I do something wrong? Are you okay?" And if you ask them, believe them! Be prepared to believe their answer.

And what if your spouse says everything is fine? Then, continue life as normal! Don't change what you're doing. Don't do things like act guarded or treat them poorly, because these behaviors are what can affect your spouse in a negative way.

Only when you have different information from your spouse can you can react in a positive way to gain influence. So do not return coldness for coldness. Instead, be the best you can be physically, intellectually, emotionally and spiritually. Learn how to become a better you in each of these areas with the PIES Podcast: piesuniversity.com/piescast/
