Hi Anita,

Thanks for the reply. My relationship with my wife is good, but our communication has shut down a bit over the years. It’s not really her that’s the issue though; it’s mainly me and my difficulties communicating. I’ve felt myself shut down to communication almost as a whole; I can’t seem to form the words I want to in conversations, so they often fall flat of my desires. Sometimes I have an easier time just talking to people I don’t know as well… but that doesn’t always work either. I guess it’s just something I really need to work on.
