I think that what infuriated me the most was the fact that we were in such a great mood before this. So, first I started to complain about the eggs but it turn into a strange cicle of arguments about the argument we were having. Very paradoxal... Anyway, thanks a lot for your videos!

I think when you truly love your partner and you see that being late triggers deep reaction in him/her you organize yourself and come on time. I never had this issue with my previous partners but with one friend. She always late. And it’s a fact. And I do consider this attitude like a major “don’t care” which is visible in her behavior about other things. And with time i started to arrive late myself to the meetings with her. It also allowed me to flex my rigid neurotic mind that others should behave like I believe is right. May be these kind of people are sent to our life so we can learn to be less rigid and less categorical and of course to heal our past traumas. Also worth mentioning not to be fixating on the time while you are waiting but use these extra minutes on loving yourself, asking yourself how are you doing for the past few days/weeks, observe the nature, relax while breathing deeply because when the other person will arrive you won’t be able to do it. Use these extra time as a gift from the Universe and as the hint that you don’t have enough of quality space for yourself. 😉 Sending love to everyone ❤️ P.S. I prefer Marshall Rosenberg “Non violent communication” it’s even softer.
@jaymesigler6402 Жыл бұрын
I have ADHD. It's rare and almost impossible for me to be on time. It's not something I can fix by just "organizing myself and coming on time."

Things we’ve discussed what what we like, how we’re showing we love each other and things that drive us insane that we can’t deal with. I am tired of arguing and realized I’m just going t stop reacting to negative things he says or does because it’s not worth it.

When you are late after we agreed to meet, it makes me feel anxious. I can't really describe it, but I've tried many times, and now it's hard not to take it personally when you're aware and still choose to prioritize your circumstances over our plans. This has added to my anxiety in these situations. Probably similar to how this conversation upsets you. I try to ignore it because of that, but now I feel manipulated. Why is it okay for you to be upset for reminding you of our agreement, but then I'm "irrationally" upset when you repeatedly prioritize your circumstances over our plans? I understand my value to you. Actions speak louder than words. You may not be late intentionally, but by now it's clear that you aren't even attempting to intentionally not be late. Take responsibility for your own actions please. My wife doesn't like it when I smoke. - Don't smoke. My husband is bothered when I spend money we don't have. - Don't spend money you don't have. My partner feels like I'm ignoring their needs when I spend too much time playing video games. - Don't play so long. My .... is upset when I agree to a thing, then fail to meet that agreement, again, because this other really important thing came up, again. - Don't be a bitch.

If you feel that she is making an effort, is trying, but she can't make false promises, and you can live with that, it's maybe not important enough for you to leave.

HeartOfSky The issue is a behavior that is unchanging and negatively effecting the lives, growth, health, development of both the other parent and children is the situation I envisioned when I made that response. If there is enough flexibility in the lives of the other people in the household, then they can absorb the stressor. Depending on situational variables, everybody has to make a decision on when to call it quits rather than raging forward . I do not know what that decision point would be.

How interesting that I have found out about Esther Perel now --only this month-- when I am experiencing problems in my relationship. I have known for a while that I deeply, deeply love my partner, yet I have committed the stupidest and most common of errors by not fighting fair, by generalizing, and by outright hurting him. Of course he doesn't accept this! Only a fool would allow such a way of communicating to happen. ...And now I have happened upon the many videos of Esther Perel. What an opportunity to work on understanding myself, understanding my partner, and to move ahead! I am especially grateful for THIS video from almost 3 years ago. It has arrived on my queue at an opportune time. What a joy to discover answers!

This is good info that I need to remember. I'm the one who has a tendency to be late and I never really "got it" why it was such a problem to my husband. Thank you for helping me grasp the other perspective Esther! I'm working on it.

Hi Esther: I have already commented about the depth of your knowledge and wisdom which resonates in my heart & mind. Tell me on the topic of Conflict Resolution. Will it not be so much better if we could have mutually agreed conflict resolution tools & strategies between partners so that things do not get blown out of proportion. When 2 people are in conflict mode things are going to intensify but when we apply conflict resolving tools of giving time & space, treating the problem as circumstantial, not using words or emotional blackmail to be one up on the situation, be forgiving and switching the mood and environment with hugs & kisses. What say you Ms Perel?

It's a good starting point for realisation, that we don't have just one reality to deal with. From one side is the reality of the social agreement, from the other is our individual realities, form by our own unique perception. To balance between all this makes endless disagreements and problems. Once we understand this, is better to relax, accept and judge as less as we can instead of swimming in this mish mash non stop.

0:38 - Esther's *UNPACKING of Confirmation Bias* is soo soo GOOD!!! - "I suggest that you not think of yourself as the person who has the right measurement stick on what is worthy of being upset about and what is not it never bodes well but then the other thing to understand your boyfriend is this is something that we do in relationships that is really fascinating and we call it confirmation bias which means your boyfriend has decided for a host of reasons quite a while back probably that when you are late you are doing this on purpose you know how much it upset him and yet you're doing it again so obviously you mustn't care about him or respect him to the degree that he thinks you should otherwise you wouldn't be doing this the way confirmation bias works is that I am going to pick up evidence along the way of everything that's going to confirm to me that what i believe is actually true and i'm going to disregard any evidence that's going to challenge it and make me want to reconsider so if your boyfriend has decided that you are purposefully dissing him he is going to pick up all the pieces of evidence that prove that the multiple times where you actually came early the multiple times when you've been there on time the multiple times when you've arranged specific special things at that moment will matter none because they would challenge this idea and then of course what you want to ask is is why would you boyfriend persistent thinking of yourself as not caring about him when you are trying to convince him that you do why would we rather think that the other person doesn't love us rather than be released by learning that that's not the case because there is something in the way that we organize reality in the way that this confirmation bias gives us order it gives me a sense that i know what's true and even if what's true sucks I still prefer to think that that's what's true because at least it organizes my reality very strange things that us human beings do so what can you do to make this different don't get first of all into the convincing him that he shouldn't get upset he already is so you simply tell him I totally know how much you hate this you don't justify yourself you don't try to explain why this time you violate that it's a better reason than all the other times you give him the space to be pissed and you say i'm sorry and you say you don't promise it will never happen again because it probably will and you tell him that you can totally understand that given where he is when you've done this six times there is a reason he will continue to think that that's what it means leave him with the meaning that he has given to it and leave him with the space and stay connected that's probably at that moment the best thing you can do." - Esther Perel kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoakmGd3rc2abMk #Netfriending Show Topic:
