Understanding Your Wife’s Reality and Why Validation Matters

It’s easy to invalidate your wife’s reality. You can do it without meaning to do so, and without having a clue you’ve done it.

Close up portrait of shocked woman with the word invalid stamped over her face.

Her perception may or may not be accurate, but it’s still what she sees and how she feels. Dismissing that makes her feel disrespected, and it’s not good for your marriage.

You can accept her experience and still disagree with her conclusions about what her experience means. What’s more, she’s far more likely to listen to you and consider your reality when you challenge her in this way.
