We both have been very stressed lately and have had big changes in our lives... If we could communicate better without sarcasm an jokes that would help and not let others like family or friends get involved in our problems ... If we could cut down the bills and watch our finances better things will get better in that field ... Also I believe that we need to show each other that we truly do care and love for each other more ... I just hope my hubby knows I'm always here for him

1) Trust: trust has been damaged dramatically due to many things (lies, misleadings, hidden secrets, dishonesty, etc) that has happened over the years. Without trust, relationship will not succeed.
2) communication/ listening: I would like to finish my sentence my self and not to be cut off short so I can get my point across. I wish to be listened to the words I say and not to be forgotten after a few days. I would want everything in details and direct. nothing in the gray spot or partially complete,definitely not a complete lie.
3) support: I would like improvement on the emotional support. I feel like an enemy sometimes, I like to hear and see more positive things about me when it comes to hearing what others say about me based on what she says, rather than being ridiculed or being blamed. I would like to improve this type of support by actually showing in public that we care for each other and that we are a couple, not a stranger or just for a "married title".

Financial security because you know I worry about money and the future all the time.
I wish we had a dog to cheer you up all the time.
