How To Become More Vulnerable With Your Partner

If you're not used to being vulnerable with your partner (or anyone else), it might feel daunting at first. Here are a few tips on how to take those first steps:

Start small: Don't try to share everything at once—that will only overwhelm both of you. Instead, start with something relatively minor that's been on your mind recently. For example, maybe there's something you've been wanting to do but haven't had the courage to mention it until now. Or maybe there's a minor disagreement between you that you've been avoiding addressing head-on. Whatever it is, start small and go from there.
