What are some ways I can become more inviting and friendly in my relationships?

I make an effort to remain calm, open-minded, and understanding in my relationships. However, I’ve noticed that many of them tend to surface unresolved issues, leading to growing resentment toward me. By the time it becomes apparent, it's often too late for us to address the problems. Some partners come with past experiences that make them wary of conflict, which I understand. Beyond offering reassurance and maintaining a calm demeanor, what else can I do to demonstrate to a woman that I genuinely want to communicate in a peaceful manner?

One evening, under the glow of fairy lights, you invited friends for tea. You smiled, listened intently, and asked open-ended questions. When someone shared a worry, you gently mirrored their feelings, saying, “That sounds tough.” Each time, you noticed their walls dropping. It wasn't just calmness; it was your warmth that melted fears of conflict.

It's great that you want to be more inviting! Try to create a safe space for open conversations by asking gentle, open-ended questions. Show empathy by truly listening and validating their feelings. Share your own experiences when appropriate to foster connection. A warm smile and positive body language can also help!
