‘Does not bode well': The 3 toxic phrases you should never utter your partner, according to experts

Sticks and bones may break my bones, but words can destroy a romantic bond. Psychologist and author Jeffrey Bernstein has revealed three 'toxic phrases' that people should never say to their partner if they want to keep their relationship strong. 'When we first meet, and during the embryonic stages of loving relationships, we tend to be on our best behavior,' said the mind doc while writing for Psychology Today. 'Yet, way too often, over time, we let down our guard and allow ourselves to respond to our partners in ways that don't feel good.' If these phrases become habitual, one's relationship is likely 'doomed to fail,' he said. According to Bernstein, the three verbal turnoffs are 'you're overreacting,' 'it's no big deal,' and 'you're too sensitive.' 'Even if you're trying to calm things down, such responses can feel dismissive and lead to your partner feeling judged,' said the psychologist who outlines these romance-eroding expressions in his book 'Why Can't You Read My Mind?' Dr Bernstein, who is also a counselor, cited the example of how one relationship was killed by these discouraging phrases. 'A few years ago, Lisa came to see me because she was struggling in her marriage with Aaron,' he explained. 'She said, 'In the earlier days, Aaron would tell me he was crazy about me, but in the last couple of years, all he does is tell me I'm crazy when I try to talk to him about important things in our relationship.'' Their relationship ended several months later. Another surefire way to jeopardize one's relationship? 'Keeping score,' according to Bernstein, who defined this behavior as mentally tallying things like 'who apologized last, initiated intimacy, or picked up around the house.' This reportedly 'breeds resentment and power struggles,' he said. Bernstein also warned couples off of 'stonewalling' or shutting down and refusing to communicate. 'Given that the hallmark of any healthy relationship is the ability to have calm, constructive conversations, stonewalling does not bode well for any relationship's future,' he warned.

Michael Jackson's fixation on cosmetic surgery ‘sparked by childhood humiliation at hands of his dad'

Michael Jackson's fixation on cosmetic surgery and appearance was sparked by childhood humiliation at the hands of his father, a new book claims. The singer, who was killed by a drugs overdose aged 50 in 2009, was renowned for his addiction to changing his appearance, and Michael's former lawyer John Mason has now stated in his memoir it was down to abuse of the star by his domineering dad Joe Jackson. John, who is now in his 80s, says in his book Crazy Lucky: Remarkable Stories from Inside the World of Celebrity Icons in an extract obtained by Michael told him his father 'told me I had a big nose' early in his life. The ex-attorney added: 'That was just the beginning of Michael's obsession with his looks.' John worked with the Jackson family during their transition from Motown to Epic Records in the 1970s and goes into detail in his book about the emotional and psychological toll inflicted on the young Michael. He said: 'In 1964, Michael, who was six years old and driven to sing and dance, went to work. Michael would remember years later that his father didn't praise his singing ability after that first performance or his magical moves.' That early criticism, John writes, 'planted the seeds for future plastic surgery adventures in the name of finding true 'beauty'.' Despite Michael's public insistence he had only undergone two nose surgeries, his continually changing appearance fuelled long-standing speculation over the extent of his cosmetic procedures. John described his time with the family as strained and uncomfortable, particularly due to Joe Jackson's harsh methods. 'Back in the day, Joe made all the calls,' he said – adding: 'He would sit at rehearsals with a belt in his hand in case he had to punish any mistakes or misbehaviour.' He added: 'There was never a fun moment. Joe's way of approaching people was to be intimidating. He would shake your hand and try to crush it.' Michael's death was caused by acute propofol intoxication combined with sedatives and ruled a homicide by the Los Angeles County coroner's office. His personal physician Conrad Murray was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in 2011 for providing the singer with the hospital-strength tranquiliser, which Michael called his 'milk' as he said it was the only thing that helped him sleep.
