Five Reasons Why Talk is Essential to Relationships
by Richard L. Weaver II

Excerpt from Saturday's Valentine's Day Essay:
One of the often-heard complaints that women express about their relationship partner revolves around the “he won’t talk” problem: “He just won’t open up,” or “He doesn’t communicate,” or “He never expresses his feelings,” or “He never acts like he’s listening,” or “He doesn’t respond to me when I talk to him.” Whether one classifies it as a gender bias or not, it is, essentially, a male problem: Women talk, men don’t!

THIS IS AN ESSAY ALL WOMEN WILL WANT TO DOWNLOAD, PRINT OUT, AND GIVE TO THEIR RELATIONSHIP PARTNERS NOT JUST TO SHOW THEM HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO TALK BUT TO STIMULATE THEIR OWN CONVERSATION ABOUT ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF THEIR OWN RELATIONSHIPS! PUT COMMUNICATION AT THE CENTER OF YOUR VALENTINE'S DAY!
