Lesson Overview

8.42 – Repairing Misunderstandings in How You Show Love: Misunderstandings about love expressions are inevitable but fixable. Repair begins by acknowledging that intention and impact may differ. Clarifying each person’s meaning behind gestures restores alignment. Saying “I thought this would make you happy” opens dialogue, not defense. Repair also involves listening for emotional subtext—what each partner truly needs. Apologies should focus on the gap between giving and receiving, not blame. When both work to re-translate affection, trust rebuilds. Repairing misunderstandings shows that love is willing to learn. It keeps connection evolving with empathy and care.
