Dare To Be A Man : Love Communicates
by David G. Evans (author of
Healed Without Scars)
Have you ever been in a
relationship with a person who talks in fragments, as
though everything is a secret?
You ask question after question, because you are receiving one - word
answers that offer no detail. In that kind of
relationship, you are not being treated like a person
who is part of a loving , covenant connection. Responses
like "just trust me" or "that's none of your business"
breed distance rather than closeness in communication.
It is impossible to feel secure in
this type of relationship. Security is cultivated in a
relationship when communication produces familiarity
with your thought process. Love that informs cultivates
a safe place in the heart.
When you feel informed, you are
inspired in your relationship. Creativity, sensitivity,
and a considerate atmosphere are built. When a person is
not communicative, however, those in relationship with
him or her alter their perception of the person's moods,
anxieties, struggles, and challenges. Those around him
or her become less and less concerned, which is actually
the last thing the non-communicative individual wants.
In general, this type of person desires a level of
communication he or she is not willing to give. By the
time a non communicator decides to talk, significant
others have given up hope of ever having true,
meaningful interactions. Loved ones then learn not to
care deeply.
