Is there a way to communicate better with your wife after 20 years?

Seems like communication is third or fourth to everything else?

It would seem to be that communication might lead you to further discuss numbers 1, 2 and 2 and get those details ironed out. If the screen has gone black in your relationship and no one is talking to each other about their challenges and triumphs and you are not talking to each other about your commitments to each other, working on your commitment to exchange thoughts with each other might bring more happiness.

Start asking before doing everything, including them makes them feel good. And share more ‘before’ being asked to. Get back to having them be the first person you want to tell everything to. It removes a lot of previous hurt by building back trust. Encourage them to do the same.

You can always improve your communication skills
What I find always helpful, is to just simply ask the other person about their opinion to the situation and how they feel and I keep on asking with everything until the situation is solved and both are on a good uhm page

Absolutely, communication can always improve. Marriage counseling is a really good choice

Start going on different adventures come up with different ideas

Families should not interfere. but if there is a problem that has no solution, it can be communicated through someone loved and trusted by both parties.

I think you both have to make it the top priority
