Tarzan and Jane Marriage Series -Part 3 - The Art of Communication and Intimacy
🌿 Series 3: Intimacy & the Art of Communication
Why We’re Going Back Into the Jungle
There comes a moment in every relationship where the vines get thick, the silence gets loud, and two people who once couldn’t wait to touch each other can barely find their way back to the same clearing.
And intimacy?
It doesn’t vanish in one dramatic swoop.
It leaks.
Slowly. Quietly. Almost politely.
One unspoken need…
One missed glance…
One ignored plea disguised as a small gesture…
And suddenly, Tarzan and Jane aren’t swinging through the jungle together — they’re clinging to opposite vines, pretending everything’s fine while something tender inside them quietly fades.
This series is not about blame.
It’s about understanding the invisible moments that kill connection — and learning how to speak like you actually want to find each other again.
We’re going back into the earlier stories — the sweet, the funny, the messy, the misunderstood — and we’re turning them inside out.
We’re asking the questions couples rarely dare to ask:
What was Tarzan really feeling beneath the grunt?
What was Jane really trying to say beneath the sigh?
Where did the communication clog up?
How could things have unfolded if they’d spoken sooner, softer, braver?
And what tiny shift would’ve preserved their intimacy instead of draining it drop by drop?
Because intimacy isn’t only about touch.
It’s about truth.
And truth can’t breathe in silence.
So this series?
We’re not staying on the surface.
We’re spelunking into the emotional caves and the shadowy corners — the places where love either strengthens or snaps.
We’ll revisit every post from the first two series, rip open the deeper dynamics, and rebuild a map for couples who know they love each other but feel like they’ve somehow gotten lost.
And yes — because the jungle is wild and messy and occasionally hilarious — each chapter will still end with a Jungle Laugh.
A wink.
A reminder not to take yourselves so seriously that you forget to smile in the process of healing.
Grab your vine.
We’re going in brave.
We’re going in honest.
And this time, we’re going in together.
🌴 Jungle Laugh:
“Tarzan lit a fire for romance. Jane asked if it came with s’mores.”
