The greatest example of a meditation is when a man and a woman are in perfect harmony where the mind and heart are needing no secrets, fears of intimacy, or even a censorship of any actions, thoughts or words, etc. as the harmony is in perfect alignment. Is it possible? If it can be thought of, it is! Of course, it's not necessary to just have a good and relatively happy but rocky coupling, when 'angelic energy' is within each who takes the time to seek it, alone or in a coupling.
Most relationships have areas of verbal censorship that are unnecessary, but rarely don't just go on for a lifetime due to apathy that it can't be fixed to clear the mutual uncomfortable energy. Ask any couple if they have to walk on eggshells with the other, and it's rare to hear that it happens often. Women, in a relationship, particularly need to be respected for their feelings and not engaged in an argument. In my experience the male should take the lead and not find fault with his partner, but use skillful means to avoid any confrontation.
An example of a short story of where most males forget to show empathy and compassion to their partner:
A man notices his wife's butt is getting big. I bet your butt is as big as my grill." He tells her. His wife rolls her eyes, but he gets a tape measure, measures her bottom, measures the grill, and teases her that they're about the same size. That night, he tries to see if he can get lucky. "Not tonight," says his wife. He asks her why not, to which she responds, "Do you really think I'm going to fire up this big-ass grill for one little wiener?"
