			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I feel that he is “<strong>Always Fighting against My Ideas</strong>,” the dream I’m yearning for is… team work.</p>
<p>There were some responses (58%) telling about this dream situation:</p>
<p>1. “My dream is to feel that I am half of a whole: he supports me, I support him, and together we make one whole couple work. I want someone who challenges and encourages me in equal measure, making me a better person. He doesn’t have to indulge my every idea – just support the truly good ones and gently disagree with the not-so-great ones. I want a teammate, someone who will work with me. My greatest regret is that my husband has not been as invested in our children as I wished, nor supported me in my efforts towards them, but always coming with a contrary idea that leaves me alone and confused.”    </p>
<p>2. “I have learned that the more I push for something, the more he pulls away from it. So, I have left ideas of moving in together, even after a year of dating, in the back of my mind. Outwardly, I show him that the idea completely disinterests me now. If he would be open to ideas and be willing to talk about things even when they scare him, I wouldn’t have to hide my dreams in the shadows.”</p>
<p>3. “What I need is for my husband to let me know that he thinks my ideas and opinions are valid and well founded. Otherwise, he’s not treating me as his partner or his ally; he’s treating me as an enemy, as someone to be dismissed. He’s telling me that I don’t have the right to make decisions or have input.”</p>
<p><strong>In what other ways would you know that he is there to work with you?</strong></p>
<p>•	“He makes me feel that we are on the same team. We both want resolution and compromise, so we both give ideas while being open to new ones.”<br />
•	“Even if he does not agree with my every idea, he appreciates the creativity and resourcefulness that go into them, and encourages me to stay motivated.”<br />
•	“He doesn’t rush – he listens carefully and tries hard to see things from my point of view.”<br />
•	“Since we listen well to each other, we realized that we share a lot of common ideas.”<br />
•	“When I have a good idea, he is quick to acknowledge it and work with me to make it happen. When he disagrees, he gives me an honest opinion; not a derogatory one.”</p>
<p><strong>I simply need to feel supported by him.</strong></p>
<p>NOW that you deeply acknowledge this need to feel supported by him, the person nearer you…how are you going to find the direct and clear support you need to face everyday’s life challenges? How far do you think you can go without his explicit words of recognition and support, being him the most important person in your life? And how are you going to repair the damage caused by his lack of recognition of your best ideas that forces you to feel incompetent and worthless? Where is the motivation to keep developing yourself coming from?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I feel that he is “<strong>Punishing Me for Crying,</strong>” the dream I’m yearning for is… comfort.</p>
<p>Most of the responses (68%) expressed dreams around the following insights:</p>
<p>1. “I wish that he honestly cared and was concerned when he saw that I was crying. I wish he could see that I’m hurting, pure and simple. What I need at those times is not to be dismissed or told I’m playing the victim, like usual – I need comfort and understanding, things that come only with real, honest communication.”<br />
2. “It would be wonderful if I could be emotional when I need to and he would just hug me close, stroke my hair, and let me cry it out. I don’t want to feel that I have to hide from him or he’ll laugh at me for crying. That’s just not healthy; everybody cries. I’d rather have compassion and a desire to make me feel better.”<br />
3. “I want to be able to feel whatever it is I’m feeling, whatever it is that’s troubling me, without being made to feel that my feelings are unfounded and that I&#8217;m being unreasonable. My husband is a Marine and can’t grasp the concept of ‘crying.’ That’s a very lonely situation.”</p>
<p><strong>In what other ways would you know that he is there to comfort you?</strong></p>
<p>•	“He lets me know that my emotions are valid and that it’s OK for me to feel the way I do.”<br />
•	“Sometimes I just don’t want to talk about why I’m sad &#8211; the important thing is that he always asks why.”<br />
•	“If he makes me cry, he is sure to stop himself and comfort me. He always regrets his conduct and tries to work things out in a different way.”<br />
•	“He knows that sexual passion is not enough – sometimes I need some simple compassion.”</p>
<p><strong>I simply need to feel safe when I&#8217;m down!</strong></p>
<p>NOW that you deeply acknowledge this need to feel safe to express pain and sadness, and to be comforted by him …how are you going to find the safe space where to be able to express your emotions ? How are you going to ask for empathy and respect for your feelings, whatever they can be? And how are you going to feel supported and comforted when life delivers one of these blows that makes you (and everybody else) need a good cry to feel better?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I feel that he is<br />
<strong>“Sabotaging My Projects,</strong>” the dream I’m yearning for is… unconditional support.</p>
<p>Some of the responses, 75% of them expressed dreams so:</p>
<p>1. “I need to know that I have a partner who cares! When you truly love someone, you want what’s best for them; you want to see them spread their wings and try to fly. Helping them with the things that matter to them is never a burden. Most importantly, loving someone means you wouldn’t dream of sabotaging their projects; their dreams. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what my husband has done, and almost all of my projects have been ruined by him.”</p>
<p>2. “More than anything, I desire the freedom and confidence to take on even the hardest projects. Instead of criticizing me or telling me I can’t do it, he should be cheering me on, letting me know that he’s proud of me. I know that I am strong enough to succeed without his help… But success would be so much more gratifying if I knew that he had been there to encourage me through my struggles.”</p>
<p>3. “I want to know that we don’t have to compete against one another and argue about whose project or needs are more ‘important’. I wish we could slow down, lean on each other more, and simply enjoy our time together. Who knows, maybe we would even get excited about each other’s important projects!”</p>
<p><strong>In what other ways would you know that he supports you?</strong></p>
<p>• “I know I can count on his support when I need it, no matter what it is I require.”</p>
<p>• “My husband cares enough to do something simply because he knows it’s important to me.”</p>
<p>•  “He is with me every step of the way, but he also respects my space and gives me time to develop my projects.”</p>
<p>• “It is a back and forth conversation: I give him my full support, and he returns the gesture.”</p>
<p>• “He takes a real, genuine interest in the things I want to do.”</p>
<p><strong>I simply need to feel respected.</strong></p>
<p>NOW that you deeply acknowledge this need to be respected, included and supported in your life struggles by the person most near you…how are you going to find the warm support you need to face everyday’s life challenges? How are you going to challenge his way of denying support to your projects, and request from him the reciprocal support that is the core of any marriage? And how are you going to repair the damage caused by his negativity and lack of support that forces you to give your battles always alone and with an extra handicap of fearing him stabbing you in the back? </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I feel he is  <strong> “Giving Me the Cold Shoulder,”</strong> the dream I’m yearning for is… warmth.</p>
<p>Some 78% of the responses expressed:</p>
<p>1. “Although no one should ever be given the cold shoulder, and I don’t agree with him giving it to me, I still want to know why he thinks I deserve it. Better yet, if I do something wrong and hurt him, I want him to simply come to me and say, ‘You hurt me.’ I would do everything in my power to right my wrong, if only I knew what it was.”</p>
<p>2. “I want there to be warmth in our relationship instead of this coldness that he’s created by turning me away. It would make me so happy to be able to say to each other, ‘Honey, I am upset because of this or that, but I still love you.’”</p>
<p>3. “I am allowed to express my feelings as long as they are in agreement with his. If they are not, I am isolated for them and given the cold shoulder. I want to feel that I am worth something to him, that I will never be ignored. I want to feel that I am part of a special institution – marriage – and not an orphan looking longingly through the window.”</p>
<p>In what other ways would you know that he would never turn his back on you?</p>
<p>•	“I feel like I made a good choice when I married him. I can count on him for anything.”</p>
<p>•	“He tries hard to keep a good mood and move on with the day, even if we run into a snag.”</p>
<p>•	“I know that I am the last person on earth he would turn his back to.”</p>
<p>•	“We have everything we need to be happy and comfortable. He would never jeopardize that by weakening our connection.”</p>
<p>•	“When he’s upset, he never jumps to conclusions and blames me. We sit down together and talks things out until we find the real reasons.”</p>
<p>•	“He makes me feel wanted and loved in a personal, intimate way.”</p>
<p>•	“It would break his heart to know he had made me cry.”</p>
<p><strong>I simply need his open heart, loving me.</strong></p>
<p>NOW that you deeply acknowledge this need to be loved, included and helped by healthy confrontation when is needed&#8230;how are you going to find the warm support you need to face everyday&#8217;s life challenges? How are you going to challenge his isolating himself and giving you the cold shoulder, and educate him into proper and respectful communication that solves problems and expresses love and commitment at the same time?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I feel that he is “<strong>Isolating Me from My Family</strong>,” the dream I’m yearning for is… integration.</p>
<p>Responses expressed dreams consistent with these:</p>
<p>1. “I want my family to be a part of our life together. They aren’t, and I know it’s because he doesn’t want them to know that he behaves like a child the majority of the time. However, he won’t admit that this is the reason, or address the problem. In fact, he doesn’t give me any reason at all. My family just isn’t allowed to be included.”</p>
<p>2. “I would like to feel free to have my parents and brothers, nephew and niece over to my house at any time. I can’t do that, because he doesn’t want to spend time with them, and he doesn’t see that they’re important or that time with them is important. It isn’t enough for him that they’re special to me.”</p>
<p>3. “My dream is that he would see that our whole family, whether it’s his, mine, or ours, all are connected, and that their relationship should be fostered. If the relationship with his family is bad, I want him to work on it, not ignore them and think that I have to do the same with my family.”</p>
<p>In what other ways would you know that he accepts and supports your family?</p>
<p>•	“We surround ourselves with family whom we love and who loves us back.”</p>
<p>•	“He is always cordial to my family and helps my relationship with them blossom.”</p>
<p>•	“He never manipulates me or makes me look bad in front of my family.”</p>
<p>•	“He genuinely loves my family, and opens his heart to every member.”</p>
<p><strong>I simply need to have a happy family around.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I feel that he has a   “<strong>Sulking Face for No Reason</strong>,” the dream I’m yearning for is…calm and peace.</p>
<p>Some 65% of the responses are:</p>
<p>1. “I would like to feel that when and if he starts sulking, it’s a momentary lapse. It’s normal to feel a little let down sometimes, but he needs to let it go, get back in the game, and resolve the issue like an adult.”</p>
<p>2. “Some honesty between us would be great. He could just tell me when something is truly bothering him, and if he needs his space, I would give it to him. Instead, my PA husband claims that “he is not sulking,” when he clearly is. Worse still, he blames me for causing his bad mood!”</p>
<p>3. “I wish he would feel secure enough in our relationship to know that he can not only communicate with me, and tell me what’s wrong, but that he can also let down his guard and let down his walls. I want him to know I’m here to support and comfort him, not undermine him. If my husband felt supported and happy, my family would be happy too.”</p>
<p><strong>In what other ways would you know that he can calmly solve problems?</strong></p>
<p>•	“I don’t have to pretend things are fine just so he’s not offended.”</p>
<p>•	“He acts his age and meets me on an adult level, even if he doesn’t get what he wants.”</p>
<p>•	“When he has an issue with something in our relationship, he is calm and doesn’t make me feel like a criminal.”</p>
<p>•	“He lets me know that my love and my support mean the world to him.”</p>
<p>•	“When he’s sad or angry, I know I can bring a smile to his face and snap him out of it.”</p>
<p>•	“He knows he can confide in me and trust me.”</p>
<p>•	“He respects every member of our family, and never takes his anger out on them.”</p>
<p><strong>I simply need a peaceful relationship.</strong></p>
<p>NOW that you deeply acknowledge this need to be in a peaceful and nurturing relationship, to receive positive affection and encouraging support…how are you going to establish a peace zone in your life, where there is no sulking, no negativity and no love refusal? How are you going to provide yourself with this peaceful emotional area in a constant way?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I feel that he is  “<strong>Playing Mind Games with Me</strong>,” the dream I’m yearning for is… trust in him.</p>
<p>Here we had some 85% of responses expressing the following dreams:</p>
<p>1. “Sometimes I feel like it’s a lost cause to think we can ever communicate openly about why he needs to play these games, why he hides his thoughts and actions. Maybe it isn’t hopeless to dream of clarity, but right now it seems like it.”</p>
<p>2. “I want to be an integral part of his life and worthy of so much more than games. I do not like playing mind games and think this is the worst aspect of my PA husband. I do not want to have to play games to get what I want; I prefer to be forthcoming, and want that in return.” </p>
<p>3. “I would like to have consistency, to trust that a yes is a yes and a no is a no. Being with a man who changes his mind all the time makes me feel insecure, like I can’t trust him. I never know where I stand, and I leave the argument feeling like nothing has been resolved. It makes me feel heavy.”</p>
<p><strong>In what other ways would you know that you can trust him?</strong></p>
<p>•	“My well-being is more important to him than keeping up appearances of perfection.”</p>
<p>•	“We never waste life’s precious moments; we focus most on loving each other.”</p>
<p>•	“I can think clearly when I’m with him, and I have faith in myself and my perceptions.”</p>
<p>•	“Reverse psychology does not occur when we are working things out.”</p>
<p>•	“He would never insult my intelligence by being dishonest or trying to manipulate me.”</p>
<p>•	“He is above cheating me or stifling me; he thrives on bringing out the best of me.”</p>
<p>•	“Our relationship doesn’t feel faked. It’s a real, secure connection.”</p>
<p>•	“Sometimes, if the situation is complicated, we set down a time limit and a goal.”</p>
<p><strong>I simply need security.</strong></p>
<p>NOW that you deeply acknowledge this need for a secure bond, where you can trust your own perceptions as connected to the shared reality, how are you going to send the message that you want to get rid of manipulation and deceit? How important is this need and how are you going to prevent the lack of trust that is so damaging to your self-esteem?  How are you going to respect your own need for transparency and truth? </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I experience  “<strong>Long Silences for No Reason</strong>,” the dream I’m yearning for is… connection.</p>
<p>We have here some 89% of the responses expressed dreams about:</p>
<p>1. “I would like to feel that he is silent because everything is right between us, and there’s no need to fill up space with words. Unfortunately, the opposite is true. Nothing is right.”</p>
<p>2. “I want an open and honest relationship. Instead, he sits around sulking, making me guess why he is feeling the way that he is. He should care enough to help make the relationship better, not degrade it.”</p>
<p>3. “After I express my feelings, I want to be shown respect and an urgency to resolve problems. Not be given the silent treatment, where he watches television, works, and does everything but talk to me. Those long silences make me feel like I’m married to a five year old.”</p>
<p>In what other ways would you know that the two of you share a connection?</p>
<p>•	“If he can’t talk about it right now, he lets me know when he can get back to me.”</p>
<p>•	“He never shuts down just because he doesn’t want to deal with the problem. He knows that would make me feel like I did something wrong.”</p>
<p>•	“He doesn’t just sit there and think about things, he shares them as he’s thinking them.”</p>
<p>•	“I don’t need a magic wand to make him talk to me, it just comes easily.”</p>
<p>•	“Our behaviors mesh together well most of the time – when they don’t, we work it out.”</p>
<p>•	“We work together even when the issues are difficult so that we maintain a productive relationship.”</p>
<p>•	“No one suffers in silence alone. We openly share our deepest emotions and fears with each other.”</p>
<p>•	“He appreciates my conversation and my company, no matter how simple it may be sometimes.”</p>
<p><strong>I simply need to feel included.</strong></p>
<p>NOW that you deeply acknowledge this need to feel included, to have open communication based on reciprocal trust, and to be able to share and receive personal confidences from your husband, how are you going to send him the message that it is OK to talk about everything? How are you going to stand up and express your need to have a sensible and kind response from him? </p>
<p>Perhaps letting him know that sulking is not a mature response, using assertive language? Are you going to invite yourself to practice assertive phrases beginning with &#8220;I&#8221;, and following with a description of his behavior, and then closing with a description of the consequences?</p>
<p><em>&#8220;When you remain silent after I told you what worries me, I feel (abandoned) (rejected) (isolated?) and I have to accept that my worries are meaningless to you, so I my conclusion is that I should keep them to myself. Let me know if this is true, so I can take other choices.&#8221;</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>When I feel like &#8220;I’m Walking on Eggshells,&#8221; the dream I’m yearning for is… confidence.</strong></p>
<p>An overwhelming 92% of the responses expressed dreams consistent with the following wishes:</p>
<p>1. “I wish that he loved to hear what I had to say and that it was as important to him as it was to me. I would like to feel that all topics are open between us, and that if disagreements arose we could resolve them calmly, and head straight to the solution. If only he would stop ignoring or avoiding things by weaving a complicated, confusing web around the issue. When this happens, it creates one more conflict that will not be dealt with.”</p>
<p>2. “I have been married to a PA man for 46 years. Don’t gasp! After years of guilt, I finally found an explanation and came to terms with what I had been living with. I have learned to detach emotionally and physically and moved away from husband, which seems to have improved our relationship. Not many people realize how lonely it is being the wife of a PA husband, even though he’s such a “nice guy!  My dreams of having a husband who loves, cherishes and protects me, never came about.  I am realistic enough to love myself, and now I make the most of the positive things in my life.  It is living one day at a time.”</p>
<p>3. I want to be freed from that feeling of, “What’s wrong with him now?” I want him to share with me what his needs, desires, and ideas are. He won’t (or can’t), and I can’t do it for him. Only he can. </p>
<p>4. In my heart and soul, I truly desire that we freely share all the possibilities of life, together. I know that I’m a wonderful person, but sometimes you need that encouragement, that validation, and that respect to come from your partner instead.</p>
<p><strong>In what other ways would you know he is emotionally available?</strong></p>
<p>·         “I can be open, honest, and natural with my partner, and I know he will not think less of me if he knows who I really am.”</p>
<p>·         “He acknowledges and listens attentively to my feelings and ideas.”</p>
<p>·         “He lets me know that my feelings are just as important as his.”</p>
<p>·         “I know I won’t be punished for bringing up certain things.”</p>
<p>·         “I can be myself in my own home and can truly speak my mind, and so can he.”</p>
<p>·         “There is such freedom of ideas between us that I feel like I am flying.”</p>
<p>·         “We connect and care for each other on such a deep level that we can say what needs to said, and there is never any fear of retaliation, derision, or feeling foolish.”</p>
<p><strong>I simply need to be myself.</strong></p>
<p>NOW that you deeply acknowledge this need to be yourself, to accept and value yourself and do away with all the hidden negativity and criticism of the &#8220;walking on eggshells&#8221; behavior&#8230;how are you going to allow yourself to be the unique and valuable person you are? How are you going to detach from his critiques and appreciate who you are, first and only?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>When I feel that “My Friends are Attacked,” the dream I’m yearning for is… mutual admiration.</strong></p>
<p>80 % of the responses expressed dreams consistent with ideas such as:</p>
<p>1. “Why does he has to show always that he is superior to my own friends? There is always this silly competition and the only one who loses respect is me!” </p>
<p>2. “I wish that when I have my friends and family come to my house, my husband would join me in giving them an inviting and welcoming environment. I deserve that and so do they.”</p>
<p>3. “My partner does not defend either me, my friends, or even himself from any attack. For my friends, this would not be an issue if they would somehow find the inner strength to stand up and fight their own battles. However, for myself, I am tremendously disappointed that the man I love will not speak up for me or even for himself. It may be part of his religious culture to turn the other cheek and avoid conflict, but I think that this position costs him his self respect. It makes me question his manhood, not to mention how far his pacifism would really go. If someone threatened to kill both of us, would he let them? This is not my way. I would do anything to save him.”</p>
<p> 4. &#8220;I would like to feel that he enjoys my friends as much as I do, instead of criticizing their presence. That is no longer such an issue with him and his jealousy  that makes them too uncomfortable when he is home, blocking them to come over or even call the house.”?</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>“He sees the reasons why my friends are important to me.”</li>
<li>“I am free to connect with whomever I wish without his passing judgement.”</li>
<li>“We share the same friends and love and understand them as the elected family that they are.”</li>
<li>“He understands that they have a place in my life and that they are a source of comfort. I can stand up for them and be praised for doing so.”</li>
<li>“My friends are respected because they are my friends.”</li>
<li>“We let each other work on our relationships with our friends.”</li>
<li>“When I see my friends, our time together is happy and relaxed.”</li>
<li>&#8220;I simply need to enjoy both my friends, and my partner, and not be forced to choose!&#8221;</li>
</ul>
<p>Is this also a truth in your own life? Now that you know that having valued and respected friends is an important part of your life, and that being married does not mean forgetting your friends, how would you strengthen their place in your life?</p>
