                                   Chapter 4 - Lesson 5                                                                ד רמאמ - י ֶֶי ֶמ ֲח ר ִר ִׁ

             marriage that connection is very strong and she wants to visit with
             them frequently.  If they live close by she will visit them frequently,                          .הּ ָבּ ת ַע ַגּׁ ּז ה ָג ָה ְנ ַה יא ַדּ ַו ְבּ ,די ֶמ ְת ַמ

             The husband will emotionally feel himself being shut out of her life                                             
             and that he still has not found his place as being central to her life,
             and so he will voice his displeasure to her, or he will want to limit
             those connections and her strong ties to them.  Please, Chatan, reach                                          .ד רמאמ
             deeper into your maturity and patience because the re-directing of
             her emotional ties demands time.  The husband can help his wife                              ל ַע ַבּ ַה ד ַצּ ִמ ה ָמ ְר ְג ִנּ ֶשׁ ה ָא ָנוֹא ְל תוּשׁי ִג ְר
             by increasing the level of his conversation with her and making her
             feel more wanted, while giving her the opportunity to open up to
             him the feelings and emotions of her heart.  This patience on the
             part of the husband and his willingness to open a dialog with her                     םי ֶמ ָע ְפ ֶל ה ָלוּל ֲע ,ּתי ֵב ְבּ לֶֹ ְמֶי ל ַע ַבּ ַה ִֶ ה ָשּׁ ֶא ָה פּצ ְר ל ָכּ םִע
             and listen to her heartfelt feelings will strengthen the bonding of
             their relationship.  In this regard earlier in this essay we quoted the               ה ִז  .ּד ָמ ֲע ַמ  ת ִא  ל ֵצּ ַנ ְמ  ל ַע ַבּ ַה ִֶ  ה ֶָ ָגּ ְר ַה  הּ ָל ְצ ִא  ר ֵרּע ְת ֶה ְל
             Gra commenting on (Mishle 9:6) “She should be connected to her                        ר ָמ ֱא ִנּ ַה ת ִא פי ֶב ָה ְל ר ֶָ ְפ ִא ךְ ָכּ .ל ַע ַבּ ַה ד ַצּ ֶמ תוּרי ֶה ְז ל ִפ ִכּ ֶ ֵרּדּ
             husband more than to her father and mother.”
                                                                                                   ךָ ְתי ֵבּ י ֵֶ ְנ ם ֶע ְו ם ָד ָא ל ָכ ְל בוּל ָע י ֵו ֱה" :]ה"פ ֶי ֵר[ ה ָלּ ַכּ ת ִכ ִסּ ַמ ְבּ

             It is also brought down in that same Midrash that women “want                         ה ִצּר אוּה ִֶ ה ֶָ ָגּ ְר ַה ם ָל ְצ ִא ר ֵרּע ְל אלֹּ ִֶ י ֵד ְכּ - "ם ָלּ ֻכּ ֶמ ר ֵתּי

             going on around her in her circle of friends.  Therefore her husband
             must tell her all of the things that are going on in their circle, and                ה ַמּ ֶמ תּח ָׁ ה ִתּ ְֶֶי ְו ם ָד ָא ל ַכאֹי ם ָלּע ְל" :]ב"ע ד"פ[ פי ֶלּ ֻח ְבּ רַמֱאֶנ

             are unimportant to him. The more she is kept informed about the                       וי ָנ ָבוּ ּתּ ְֶ ֶא ד ֵבּ ַכי ֶו ,ּל ֵֶיּ ִֶ ה ִמּ ַבּ ה ִסּ ַכּ ְתֶי ְו ֶ ַבּ ְלֶי ְו ,ּל ֵֶיּ ִשּׁ
