I struggle with communication

Hey y’all, I’ve been with my wife for 4 years now and I still manage to struggle with communication I don’t know how to be open and it’s causing major issues in my marriage. Instead of me talking things out I always try to shut things down which I’ve done in most of my relationships; I’ve opened up to one female in my whole life and it back fired on me. It sucks because this is my wife and I’m still not comfortable with expressing my true feelings.

Hi! I understand it’s difficult to open up and be vulnerable, it’s something that takes a lot of practice, so don’t be frustrated if you don’t find it easy! I recommend starting out small, maybe gradually opening up about small things, like if you had a bad day at work. If you keep practicing, i’m sure you’ll eventually find it easier to open up to her :) Acknowledging these things is always the first step! I’m proud of you for wanting to improve

I am also like that but I am a very jocular person and bcz of that ppl don't really notice. Most of the time I use humor to get to ppl but it usually end there. What I have found to be effective though when it comes to communication is that first notice their interest and start paying attention to it and speak more about it and as time goes one discussion usually leads 2 another. If it someone u see almost everyday those ppl would have many interest which means u will have a list of things u will talk about and this will grow a bond bet u 2.
