Dear Matilda,

My Girlfriend Is Challenging Me. What should I do? 




Dear Reader

I'm sorry to hear that you're facing challenges in your relationship. It's important to approach these situations with open communication and respect for each other's perspectives. Here are a few general suggestions that may help:

  1. Active Listening: Take the time to listen to your girlfriend's concerns and feelings without interrupting or becoming defensive. Show empathy and try to understand her point of view.
  2. Respectful Communication: When discussing sensitive topics, it's crucial to communicate with respect and avoid attacking or belittling each other. Focus on expressing your thoughts and emotions in a calm and constructive manner.
  3. Seek Common Ground: Look for areas of agreement and shared values. Finding common ground can help both of you see that you're on the same team and working towards a stronger relationship.
  4. Compromise and Negotiation: Relationships involve compromise. Be willing to find solutions that address both of your needs and concerns. Seek a middle ground where both partners feel heard and respected.
  5. Personal Growth: Reflect on yourself as an individual and consider areas where you can grow and improve. This process is not solely about proving yourself as a man, but about becoming a better partner overall.
  6. Seek Professional Help if Needed: If the challenges persist and you're finding it difficult to resolve them on your own, consider seeking the assistance of a couple’s therapist. A therapist can provide guidance and facilitate constructive discussions.

 

Remember, every relationship is unique, and these suggestions may not address all the specific challenges you're facing. It's important to tailor your approach to your specific situation and the dynamics of your relationship. Open and honest communication is key to working through difficulties together.

I wish you all the best!!!! 

Matilda.

Deep inside me is a powerful woman, One who roars louder than a lion Yet is as soft as sheepskin. In me resides a superwoman, Fierce and visionary. The woman in me is so influential, Everything has landed on a silver platter for me, As beautiful as a rose flower, Yet I will remain bold. Within me is a woman who does not tolerate idleness. The woman in me is dominant, Everything is safely under control, Nothing falls off my guard. Though I am sometimes hurt, I still crack a grin, Because I was wonderfully created, That's why I'm called Mother Earth, A keeper of nations, That is me. Happy New Month everyone!!!!
