Princess Ugly, a Certified Family Therapist
Princess Ugly, a sex and family therapist, advises couples to learn to be comfortable with each other and communicate, no matter how difficult or hurtful the issues may be.
According to her, communication is a key element in relationships and marriages because spouses are not “assistants of the Holy Spirit” who can understand or read the other person’s mind.
“I will continue to shout it from the rooftops: Your spouse is not an assistant to the Holy Spirit. Your spouse does not have the ability to read minds,” she said.
Discussing “Rekindling Intimacy After Childbirth” with Patricia Rockson Hammond on GhanaWeb TV’s “Moans and Cuddles”, Princess Ugly stressed the need for individuals to adopt the right approach in communicating with their spouses.
She said an aggressive approach to communication could ruin the process and advised couples to communicate with love.
“I always tell women: If you want to talk to a guy, don’t say, ‘Let’s talk.’ A man’s brain goes on the defensive and sees anything you say as an attack. Even if it’s something good or bad or beneficial to them, if you say, ‘Let’s talk,’ a man’s brain goes on the defensive.”
“Communicate with love. How you communicate and the approach you take are very important,” she said.
She suggested that couples can discuss important issues while engaging in everyday activities such as going for a walk, having a meal together or just having casual conversation.
