The Thinking Patterns That Quietly Break Relationships

Most relationship conflict isn't created by the other person. It's created by the thinking patterns that quietly shape how we interpret each other.

By Katherine Hood

Most relationship problems don't begin with bad intentions.

They begin with the stories we create about each other's words, actions, and silence.

A single assumption can quietly grow into misunderstanding, defensiveness, distance, and conflict before either person realizes what's happening.
