John M. Gottman and Joan DeClaire

Bids, the fundamental building blocks of emotional communication, are attempts to connect with others, whether through words, gestures, or actions. How we respond to these bids—positively, dismissively, or negatively—shapes the strength of our relationships over time. Even when declining a bid, such as a lunch invitation, responding thoughtfully can keep the connection alive and foster mutual understanding. Emotional exchanges often carry deeper, unspoken meanings influenced by past experiences, making it essential to approach them with care and clarity. By recognizing the underlying needs behind bids and responding constructively, we can nurture stronger bonds, turning even challenging moments into opportunities for growth and connection.
