I feel that no matter how long that you know you mate there will always be a communication gap or misunderstanding. We are only human and we all have room for improvement and communication will all ways be the one thing that humans can and will improve upond.

This article is very true and informative. Not only as a reference article for one of my assignments but life improvements in general. Thanks.

My husband and I have been married for 20 years and we have had some poor communication issues.When we have an arguement he will call me names and when I communicate with him about how he is treating me hatefully it is like he doessn't want to communicate on how he is treating me is wrong and he doesn't apologize for his behavior toward me.Sometimes we have good communication and sometimes we don't.So I do agree with this article on "Close Relationships Sometimes Mask Poor Communication".I is a very interesting article.

My husband and I have been married for 20 years and we had some poor communication issues.Whenever we have a arguement and he is hateful to me and I communicate to tell him that i don't appreciate the way he is acting toward me,it is like he doesn't want to communicate with me as far as how he knows what he is doing to me is wrong and apologize to me for behavior to me.So we don't always have good communication with each other.Sometimes our communication isn't always good.

I completely saw myself in this article, yes, we do get caught up in busy lifestyles, and what we have is taken for granted. Mis-communication can cause problems, however, we can choose to change that with too many technologies today, via text messages, phone calls ( cell phones with voice mail) so in the event that we forgot to relay a message to a spouse, send a text saying, " oh, I forgot to tell you, but I have an appointment, or I went to the store and picked up some items" just messages like that can prevent mis-communication situations with your spouse. Also taking for granted that your mate loves you, how will he/she know unless you tell them.

True in most cases for some people

I feel this article is dead on, because I have this same problem with my partner. Communication is everything and once you learn how to communicate with each other the relationship will become stronger.
