There seems to be a communication gap between my husband and me. We have been married for 22 years now. During the last 5 years, things seem to have been breaking down more and more between us.

We don't have a conversation for more than 2 minutes with one another. My eldest daughter asked us some time back why we don't want to get divorced as there is no communication between us anymore Our miscommunication seems to be straining the children as well. How do I rectify  this situation?

Without words,

I believe when there is a serious communication issue in a marriage  there is also a serious priority problem. Look at it this way, if you were about to lose your employment because you where not placing enough importance on an area of your work, I'm fairly certain you would make every effort to correct this.
