The wife should feel no less responsible than the husband to share her life with him. Whether at home or at work, you have spent several hours away from your husband. He cannot share this time, unless you choose to communicate.

It is also helpful for each partner to visit the location of the other's employment, if both are working. "One picture is worth a thousand words." With a visual image of your work setting, your mate will be better able to identify with you as you describe events of the day.

Introduce each other to your close work associates, so that, when you come home and say "George was in a foul mood today," your mate has a mental image of George and what he must look like when he is in a foul mood. Intimacy is sharing all of life. Day-to-day events is a big part of life.
