By the way we were married in the summer of 1959 and this coming July it will be our 63rd anniversary! We were just a couple of naive kids when we were married and we had the good example of both of parents’ long marriages. Now we’re 82 and 84 and are living our golden years.

[@strigenteam]

The opening dialogue resonated with me strongly. When I got married as a young man 12 years ago, there were several immature things I screwed up. But one thing I believe I did right is insist upon being open about the things that caused conflict between my wife and I. Never put off talking about things that bother you. What bothers you affects your behavior and you aren't "doing your spouse a favor", but instead a disservice. We'd have a weekly marital meeting where we hashed out the good, the bad, and the ugly and took notes (actual notes with dates) figuring out who we were as a couple and what we could do better, because we both earnestly wanted to be a good partner. We still do this now, over a decade later. I have a master's degree on understanding the soul of the woman I professed was the love of my life, but the PhD is something I haven't reached yet. She was all I was interested in during my late college years, and she is still the person I am most interested in today.

Dear Dr. Peterson. I am sure you have heard this from more than a million people, and most definitely more than a million times over. You are the single most important reason why I have built, and I am still trying to build a good, healthy relationship with my parents. I have watched your lectures, and your interviews, I have smiled when you have smiled, and I have cried when something bothered or pained you. I thank you for being a positive influence on me to become a better person, to be good, to be sincere, speak the truth in the face of overwhelming odds, and for having a conscience to speak out when something is wrong. And most importantly, thank you for making me realise how precious my parents are to me. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, and I know I speak for more than a million voices who feel the same.

I took the test and I’m in shock. I never realized how wrong about myself I was. I always thought I was a very agreeable person, but I scored low in agreeableness, low in politeness, and exceptionally high in neuroticism. I followed the test instructions perfectly. This is by far the most insightful and accurate personality test I’ve ever taken before. Thank you, Dr. Peterson for creating such a helpful tool

[@bryant475]

Interesting, what behaviors led you to think you were high in agreeableness, and why do you think you scored low on it? Same with politeness and neuroticism? It's interesting when one's self perception deviates from an "objective" measure. Do you think this is more telling of the accuracy of the measure itself or the difficulty in one's ability to self-perceive? Or a bit of both? I personally haven't taken it, but definitely will. I'm a big fan of Dr. JP and the incredible work he has been doing in revitalizing order in world full of chaos! :)

@@bryant475 perhaps I thought I was somewhat extroverted and agreeable because I can be talkative at times, especially for work. But outside of that, I get anxious and exhausted by socialization.

I think I wanted to believe I was agreeable and extroverted because I admire those traits in others, like Jordan Peterson for instance. But the test made me realize it’s just not true for me

After taking the test, and listening to Jordan's 2017 personality lectures, I found all kinds of manipulative behavior in my life, where I was trying to convince myself that I was something different than I really am. It was such a relief to realize that the things I believed were false. It meant that much of my inner anguish was optional. I just had to stop lying to myself, and suddenly I could redeem all of this wasted energy I used to spend dogging myself, to start doing things I enjoy, instead.

I hope there will be more content like this, and I also hope that you get into discussions and conversation talking about different ways to bring up a child. Because there is alot of ways to do it, and it would be great to get more insight into these matters, and the differences between people.

I always thought that expression was more about being angry - the door-slamming "Good-night!", than the necessity to bash something out, before going to bed. Going to bed, acknowledging that you can try for resolution the next day, is not angry.

[@amandaorjacobchamberlain4505]

In my book of almost 10 years of marriage thoughts (LOL, should really write a pamphlet and such for fun and ... anyways....) I count the agreement that we'll be better able to work on a problem the next day as a form of resolution. You resolve that you both want it to go well and are willing to do whatever that means. I have done all 4: (I have learned many things from the example and advice of others... some areas I have the painful road of trying all approaches for myself) Going to bed angry without knowing whether they are packing things up in their mind really sux, pardon my language. Going on fighting late into the night sux too. Going to bed with only one of you thinking we'll work on it later and then you start a fight about the fight's resolution before resuming something like the first fight sux as well. Both going to bed agreeing to work on making things better is not totally comfy but is the best if it needs the time or subconscious work to happen before a solution. Obviously you want mostly to have GRACE (5 letter word for the non-quadratic table response) given to you by which I mean; the ability to smoothly handle a problem when it comes up quickly, with both parties sufficiently satisfied with the outcome. I say it's grace b/c we're all so blody different it's amazing we manage to agree to much at all with satisfaction.

There's no logic behind this.

So it's better to go to sleep with clean conscience.
