Questions to Consider

What need have I been minimizing in my marriage simply because it doesn't feel important to me?
How might assuming my spouse's needs mirror my own create unnecessary distance between us?
In what ways have I expected my partner to read my mind instead of clearly naming what I need?
Am I actively moving toward my spouse's needs, or am I waiting for them to pursue me first?
