I have a difficult time in situations with the opposite sex. I feel awkward most of the time because I don't want to send mixed signals to the opposite sex. I want them to know I have a family . Can you give me some practical advice on being around friends that are of a different gender? (1:10)

We've been married five years and every Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter we have a huge debate over whose home we should go to. More than once it has taken the joy out of the celebration. What advice can you give us on planning for the holidays? (2:17)
Sometimes it feels like we are speaking different languages. What I think I said isn't what he heard and vice versa. Maybe if I knew just how men and women communicate differently, I could communicate better. What are the differences in communication between men and women? (1:38)
I hear a lot of talk about how men and women have different needs. However, I have a tough time trying to pinpoint these needs so that I can better understand my wife. I think she feels the same way about me. Can you help? (2:39)
My wife says I never express my feelings and I say she has enough emotions for the both of us. We genuinely want to understand each other but often get tangled up in the different ways we each express our feelings. Can you help? (2:08)

I have a difficult time sharing things with my spouse after I have shared them with others. It's not that I don't want to share, it's just that the joy of sharing seems lost. Is that normal? (1:26)
I work part time to help with the bills but I'm mostly a traditional stay-at-home wife and I like it that way. My husband seems to think his work shouldn't concern me and as a result I feel left out. I'm not a control monger but I'd like to be included in his career plans. Do you think that's wrong? (2:05)
My partner accuses me of keeping him in the dark, of not telling him everything. I, on the other hand, believe we should respect one another's privacy on some matters. What do you think? Should we never keep a secret from each other? (1:41)
Most of the time, I am up-front and honest with my partner but when I have some bad news or any kind of information she won't like to hear, I'm not sure how to communicate it. How can I be honest without hurting my partner's feelings? (1:18)
Sometimes when I bring up a topic that is important to me, my spouse will say, "This is a bad time." Is his reaction just a defense, or is there truly a "right" time to say certain things? (1:05)

Nearly every couple we talk to says that communication is the key to a successful marriage. But when we ask these same couples what "good communication" is, we get a lot of foggy answers. Can you pinpoint the most essential parts of good communication for us? (1:40)
I feel that I listen to my wife but sometimes I seem to miss what she is saying. I listen, but don't listen. Help! (1:26)
