My wife and I were at a festival a couple of summers ago. A local chiropractor had a "free" check your posture evaluation. It turned out not to be free, because he only used it to tell us how bad our posture was and how he could fix it.
This isn't that.
What I would like you to think about is your posture towards your partner. And by posture - I mean two things.
First, emotionally. Are you open with her? Do you share your thoughts and feelings without her having to coax it out of you? Are you connected and engaged in things she says and does? Do you show interest in her life, goals and dreams? Or are you closed off, aloof and distant? Do you do her thing and let her do hers? I'm pretty sure that's not what she signed up for. One way you can tell: If you forget things that she says on a regular basis, you're not connected.
Second, physically. Take notice of your body language. Do you touch her? Hold hands? What about when you're together, do you find yourself leaning in towards her or leaning away? When you are together is you body language open and inviting or closed and standoffish?
Here's the key to all of this: Reach out and touch her - emotionally and physically. Be engaged and connected. Open up. It's worth the effort.
Stay in touch -
Mark
