Save Your MarriageDay 23
Speak well of them
Today's talk · preview
Day 23. Today is about how you talk about your spouse when they're not in the room.
Here's a hard truth. A lot of us complain about our spouse to friends, coworkers, family, or online. It feels like venting. But every time we do it, we practice seeing them as the problem. And the people we tell start seeing them that way too.
That doesn't mean you can never get support. Talking to a counselor or a trusted mentor about real problems is healthy. But complaining for sport slowly poisons a marriage.
