What does ongoing criticism do to a relationship?
Criticism eats away at the relationship. The partner receiving the criticism loses confidence and selfworth.
What is affected is trust, vulnerability, friendship and emotional and physical connection.
Communication will deteriorate and the couple will become like flatmates living under the same roof.
The partner on the receiving end of criticism will hold onto resentment, contempt and even hatred, towards their partner.
Remedy.
Try encouraging your partner.
What you focus on, you magnify.
Focus on the positives of your partner.
Criticizing your partner is putting yourself above your partner.
You are not without fault.
Build up your partner’s self-esteem and self worth.
Remind them how much they mean to you.
Go out of your way to make them feel good about themselves.
Build on the bond and friendship.
