1. “We need to talk.”
Yikes. Even if you really do need to talk, this isn’t a great way to start a serious conversation. “This is really the king of all phrases that strikes dread in the hearts of men,” says Jill Murray, PhD a licensed psychotherapist and author. “It always means that there is going to be a difficult conversation, and it’s probably not going to go well for the man.
The fear of the unknown and the accompanying dread makes it worse.” And if your relationship is going swimmingly, consider elevating things by embracing your wilder side.
