Wendi L. Dumbroff, Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, was recently featured in Redbook.com where she shared a therapist’s perspective on what you should never say to your partner.
In the article, “20 Things That You Should Never, Ever Say To Your Partner,” Dumbroff explains the potential impact of hurtful comments, such as, “You don’t turn me on anymore.” She states, “Thoughtless comments like these can begin to destroy trust. Not only will your partner start to question whether or not you still care, but it can destroy the assumption of emotional safety.”
