Give your partner the emotional support they need.

Give your partner the emotional support they need.

from Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking by Malcolm Gladwell

Emotional support is extremely important in any type of relationship, so be sure to give it.

How to Apply This

  1. Give credit to your partner.
    Studies show that when one partner asks for credit (e.g., saying, “I’m getting way better, you’ve got to admit it”), and the other partner does not give it, the relationship is more likely to end. However, when one partner asks for credit, and the other partner does give it (e.g., saying, “You’re right”), the couple is more likely to get married and stay married.
