About this listen

You still say I love you every night, but somewhere along the way you stopped feeling like you actually know each other.

Therapist Marie Vakakis explains why long term couples drift apart even when nothing has gone wrong, and what actually brings emotional intimacy back.

This episode covers:

  • Why relationships fade slowly instead of ending in one big fight
  • What bids for connection are, and how missing them adds up over time
  • The difference between spending time together and quality time
  • A simple framework for becoming a better listener
  • Why couples stop updating each other, and how that widens the gap over time
  • Practical questions to ask your partner this week
