Communication Styles

Let’s get to the point folks…Just like how we all have different methods of learning, we all communicate differently.

There are 3 main types of communicators: Verbal, Physical and Verbical (hehe). 

So a verbal communicator talks about their feelings.  They express their thoughts, emotions and opinions through words. 

A Physical communicator expresses themselves though physical interaction and body language.

A Verbical communicator is very expressive and both talks and show’s their feelings and emotions.

 

There are multiple benefits to knowing how you communicate and how your dates/mates communicate. 

If there is a verbal communicator and a physical communicator in a relationship, they will likely run into some communication issues.  If they understand that the other person is different in this aspect it will help them immensely. 

I suggest that you figure out what kind of communicator you are if you don’t already know.  If you are a dater…make it a point to observe your date.  If you can’t figure out their communicating style, talk about it.  Don’t assume! 

If you are in a relationship…make sure that you’ve pointed this out to each other.  Communication is one of the most important foundation blocks in a relationship (of any kind).  If you can’t communicate….through any method, how do you expect to stay together.   

A few questions to ask yourself:  How do you communicate?  How do you feel most comfortable communicating?  Do you feel like your date/mate really gets what you are saying or implying?  Do you wish that they understood you a bit more?  How could you improve on this?
