This can take any form you like—we know some couples who do these at a coffee shop together—but setting aside time to connect in this way will be very bonding. It will also set you up for success and teamwork
Emotional check-ins with your partner can get overwhelming. It's not easy to hear the bad stuff about oneself, after all. There tends to be a sense of getting defensive or over-explaining, feeling unloved or even egoistic. But if done right, which basically means, if you hear your partner out with an open-mind, assuming the best of them and using their feedback to improve your own self, then not only does the relationship grow, but it also aids one's own personal growth as an individual. Making changes in your own self is crucial to be in a happy relationship.
