@melrobbins: If you're in a relationship with someone who's quiet, don't mistake silence for indifference. In this deeply personal episode of The Mel Robbins Podcast, I’m celebrating my 30th wedding anniversary with my husband, Chris, by sitting down to talk about everything we’ve learned throughout our relationship. Chris is the quiet one in your relationship. For years, I would look at Chris and think: "Why won't he tell me what he's feeling? Why won't he just open up?" What I've learned is that just because someone doesn't talk about their feelings doesn't mean they don't have them. In fact, somebody who's quiet on the surface may be feeling very deeply. Sometimes what's missing isn't emotion. It's connection, safety, and the space to be vulnerable. One of the biggest breakthroughs in our marriage came when I stopped trying to get Chris to communicate the way I communicate and started paying attention to what helped him feel connected. Because not everyone processes their emotions out loud. And sometimes the person who's saying the least is carrying the most.
