Italian Dating Communication Tips: When Listening Is More Important Than Giving Advice

By:


Communication is an aspect in relationships that most couples tend to overlook. This shouldn't happen, considering that good communication is the key to a good relationship with your partners. Knowing that one must also know about the communication barriers that tend to destroy a good communication process between couples. These barriers prevent couples to truly open up to each other.

Do you know that not listening and giving unwanted or unsolicited advice are two communication barriers that tend to happen in relationships? Does this happen to you too? What can you do to ensure that these barriers don't ruin your communication with your other half? Here are some tips:

1. Not listening.

Listening stems from the desire to want to listen. Listening is the more important aspect in the communication process, as opposed to talking. If at any point of any conversation, whether it be through e-mail, chat, or phone, make sure that you let your partner know when and if you are unable to concentrate on the discussion at that time. Not listening to your partner only fuels resentment and anger. "Listening" doesn't only mean the use of your ears, especially since online dating has many forms of communication. Sometimes, to "listen" to a conversation means looking and reading through the eyes, if it's chat or e-mail. There are many factors that might affect your concentration on listening to a conversation.

Tips to overcome this barrier: Whatever your reasons may be, tell that to your partner and be honest about them. Do not let your partner just go on and on making a discussion without you on the receiving end listening, concentrating on it. Letting the other person know that you are unable to fully listen and concentrate at that time because you are busy or doing something in your immediate environment destroys your concentration and it would help prevent any hard feeling between the both of you.

2. Giving unwelcome advice.

With our loved ones, we always seek them to be in the best situation so that's why we tend to run off and give them advice even when they didn't ask for it. Do not let this happen to you. Sometimes, your partner needs to vent out their emotions and would need someone to listen to them silently. They are not talking to ask for advice, but to vent out what they feel. If you give unsolicited advice excessively, this may hurt your conversation with your partner. More often than not, unsolicited advice prevents people from opening up fully. Though your intentions may have been pure and for your partner's best, they might feel that they are being criticised when they might just have needed a listening ear willing to listen to them vent.

Tips to overcome this barrier: Listen when they need you to listen. Give advice if and only if they specifically ask for it. When the both of you are having a conversation and you feel that your partner wants to let off some steam, then let them speak and stay back and be supportive through listening to them. Provide encouragement and let them know that you will be there for them instead of giving them unsolicited advice. Sometimes, a willing ear is more important than an active mouth. Keep this in mind and be sensitive to your partner's needs.
