You can become a better communicator in a relationship by becoming a better listener. Many times, we are waiting for our turn to speak or we're trying to create a certain outcome in the words that we use or our persuasive arguments in conversation. I find that when you enter a conversation with a goal of listening and with a goal of understanding rather than a goal of persuading or trying to be heard, you can get to understanding a lot quicker and with a lot less effort.

Your question resolves in minutes with the biggest thing anyone can do that is even richer and better. Be a great listener, Llisten when other people are talking. Don't interrupt and join in a lot of conversation.
