Even at your angriest, avoid these words and phrases at all costs. 1. “I should never have married you.” “We want to hear that our partners would marry us again and again,” Dr. Bridbord says, which is why this is so painful for your partner to hear. “It is a statement that undermines the covenant that was created when you committed to the partnership,” she explains, “and creates deep resentment and feelings of insecurity” that can be incredibly challenging to repair. 2. “You…”, “You always…”, “You never…” “‘You,’ ‘You always,’ and ‘You never’ statements tend to come off as blaming or critical when a partner is trying to express an honest complaint or concern,” says Dr. McNulty. “An example of a ‘You’ statement is, ‘You always forget to take out the trash,’ or ‘You never think of me.’” However, starting with “You” only emphasizes differences and is not a proactive, reparative approach, which is why “I” statements are a better approach. “People who own their feelings and needs wit

Sadly, she was brutally raped and left unconscious. Unfortunately, despite all efforts by sympathizers to save her life by taking her to the hospital, she died. Now, more women are coming out of their closets to speak out after years of stigmatization. The death of the young lady was a catalyst. How serious is rape to the emotions and well-being of victims? In a lot of societies, rape is seen as a stigma, especially against the victims. Sometimes, victims of families tend to cover it up as they see it as an act of God. Painfully, the perpetrators are forgiven at the end. Tell me, how victims can speak up when they belie
