Challenges in relationships are a normal part of life, but there’s always a path forward. My marriage encountered major difficulties, but with proper guidance, my wife and I managed to resolve our issues and deepen our connection. If you’re willing to put in the work and collaborate, solutions are always within reach. Keep hope alive; there are answers out there..

In relationships the little things are the big things. Being kind, giving each other a hug or kiss when you see each other, take some time to check in with each other. Thats what gives the relationship its beauty. If thats absent you cant fix it with bold things like expensive gifts
@lindatannock10 ай бұрын
I'd rather have that kind of emotional connection than a gift anyday! A hug can mean SO much, and make a huge difference to your day. Make time to actually connect with each other in a meaningful way, rather than using a gift as a solution to what's missing in a relationship.

I have a question. How do males and females bond with each other? I don't see how men and women can bond (especially romantically) with each other. Men and women think very differently from each other. It seems like it's impossible for men and women to emotionally connect with each other. Women do emotionally connect with other women, better than men do. Women can build incredible friendships and become very close to each other in a way men can't bond, and science shows that women can bond very well with each other. Generally, women are even more social than men are. After something bad happens, a woman quickly rushes to talk to all of her female friends to get support, whereas a man can isolate himself and grief alone. Women tend to be more emotionally intelligent, more caring, more empathic, more compassionate, more affectionate, more loyal, more nurturing, more understanding, more sympathetic, more sensitive, more kind-hearted, more peaceful, more calmer, more gentle, more selfless, more expressive, more intuitive, and more outward than men are, and thus bond more with other women in a special way that they can’t with men. Men, on the other hand, are not that emotional, and thus can’t bond with other men in a special way. Women regulate emotion better. Women are more comfortable being around with other women than they are with men. They have a type of bond that usually men with women won’t really have, or with men and men. Also, girls that are friends touch each other in ways that guys just don’t.

All bollox, women essentially want to be dominated, and when you act that way around her, it takes away that sexual dominance, if you act emotional then she will stare at other non emotional men when she’s out and want the other, women will never know what they want. Therefore it’s better to stay non emotional to not look like a complete twat when you are out

I think that there are 3 key component of this video: 1. The ambiguous loss. It explains why somebody might feel that they lost the connection but might not do anything about it because of the ambiguity. 2. The concept of bid for connection. A relationship is like a string. That string is made up of a lot of little threads. Each thread is to successful connection. Therefore if somebody tries to connect with you, bid for a connection, they try to increase that string between both of you. It applies to all relationship. 3. The small thing. It makes me think about the book "The tipping point." We often think that change comes from big things while in fact it's the little things that accumulate and become big.

Yup exactly, a lot of people take relationships for granted! I used to believe in true love but I don't anymore. I do not think you can truly love someone unless you are able to communicate and work through not only the good times but the hard times too. I saw my great granny devoted to her husband and even after he died she prayed for him every night before bed until she died herself like 16 years later. Their life wasn't easy, they had 8 children and a small 1bed house in the Caribbean, but they obviously worked through their issues and had a big loving family as a result

I can understand your point of view, I've been there for like always (thanks, parents...); to me love is like my other important word with many meanings: passion. It's not just a feeling, it's not just a statement of what I've done right or wrong... it's not just potential. It's a mix of being aware of the potential, cultivationg it and facing what's wrong and trying to fix it thoughtfully. I think ppl in general take for granted also other relationships, like friendship. True AND unconditional love is just not taught, not talk about enough, so it feels like it's easy, given...granted once you "find" it in pure(?) form. Ppl misunderstand it's something to be created, like art.

I've always been a big fan of Esther ever since I saw her on a TedTalk. She vocalized and put a name of everything that I've analyzed and realized about my relationships with people. I am a very thoughtful person and I've always found myself bidding for some indication of a shared connection be at a friend or family or a significant other. But to this day I still cannot find anybody who's aware enough about this connection loop. At times it gets quite frustration because the established intimacy I have with past relationships, it's just difficult to show them or make them understand that it's just not me that's changing...because I change as a reaction to another person. They are changing me without them knowing..and vice versa. People just don't find it important to connect anymore in a more fundamental level.

Through many years of therapy and meditation I have learned that love is a choice and a feeling and a verb. Love is care in action. I live my life very intentionally. I have checked my ego, my entitlements, the way I have used others, and I reflected on how I've been used. I've been dating a fella for a little over a year now. We've never fought. I treat him with a lot of respect and he is reciprocal. I have learned to identify disrespect more easily now and I do as much as I can to protect my peace. I will walk away from those who disrespect me.

From all the relationships I know the only one who just happened it’s been going strong for the 24 years is my sisters. Everyone else I know worked very hard to make it happen and they’re either divorced or still struggling and working very hard on a daily basis. There’s no recipe for a functioning relationship. You’re either lucky to meet the right person or you’re not. It’s as simple as that. It needs to be mutual attraction, respect and commitment which most of the time is not and is one sided. That’s why people end up frustrated in hard working relationships.

I'm tearing up watching this because I feel that my partner is withdrawing and it's eating me up inside because I don't know how to tell her without the risk of demoralizing them further about their life circumstances. The comment about being drained after work and not having any energy to be an active participant is heartbreaking because on the one hand you sympethize with them, give them the benefit of the doubt that watching a program on the television is an acceptable "activity" to do together, and hope it'll be better on the weekends where we can do a creative project or go out into the world to explore. Laying in bed with the hopes of cuddling and being intimate but they choose to be on their phone instead, from habit, doom-scrolling long enough to fall asleep with their phone in their hand and/or the television illuminating the room. How do I set a "good" example, one that promotes good sleep hygeine? It's difficult to find the right time of day to bring up this that would make her upset, realizing their normal behavior is making me feel unwanted and lonely. I usually resort to typing a text or writing a letter because the emotions brought about while in the moment speaking makes it difficult to articulate all that needs to be said while also activiely paying attention to their body language and softening the blows that are anticipated.

I fully agree with the half thereness. I only have one person in my life who even takes the time to listen to me. My ex husband didn't listen to me, my son doesn't listen to me, my mom doesn't listen to me. Apparently I just don't matter to most people at all. I feel so starved for deep connection and I'm an agreeable person, but it just feels like everyone is somewhere else and has no interest in me at all. My Ex husband not only didn't listen, he went out of his way to block communication, he gave me the silent treatment, he gaslit me, he would fall asleep during a disagreement when I was trying to express my feelings and hoping for some cooperation from him. I made so many bids for connection and got ignored over and over. It hurts to be ignored over and over, by people I love so much and I feel like none of them know me at all and worse, do not care to. I'm so tired of having to compete with a smart phone for attention from people who are supposed to care about me.

Being a nice person or a great spouse doesn't deposit money in the bank to pay the mortgage. Work and ambition does. Funny thing is, most people imagine they need far more than they actually do. And this clip is right, there is all too often an assumption that the relationship will just happen, with hardly any attention. I'm alway amazed when someone tells me they work sixty hours a week and yet they are surprised to discover their partner was cheating. I'd be more surprised if they weren't cheating!

In the past, marriage was a necessity, especially for women. It was a given that if you find a suitable husband you get married and start having kids pretty quickly. I mean, look at Jane Austen's era. Just one meeting and if chemistry is there (or not, like Charlotte in P&P) you get engaged/married very fast. This notion of marrying for love (or lust) is a modern day phenomenon. Sure people fell in love in the past, but the option of choosing marriage exclusively for love is new.

The instagram one though I think is just a conversation to be had saying "I prefer to speak with you over call or in person, I think a meme here and there is fun but truthfully when we're out and about doing our own thing I don't feel like seeing every post. If it were times seeing you every time you post I would be elated, a dozen memes I lose the picture. I will try and be more attentive but I just wanted to let you know this." and keep that communication for as difficult as it is I know. I got friends that do just that and I had to find that level of comfort in myself to say, "yes I don't want to be left out of conversations and groups, but I just don't like constantly being on my phone watching endless memes talking about the most random things. Fun when in person but not on my phone all day, I get restless not being able to focus on what I wanna do in the day." So I'll mention to them that I often do my own work during the day and I'll get to memes if can be, but I really prefer to do these things in person. I understand I won't get as much interaction as others and some, many leave because they are glued to their phones, but I just don't want to do those things all day. Same thing with drinking and partying, I know they do drugs I don't prefer that, its like just communicating what works for both of you or if either of you wanna compromise somewhere or not.

In this KZbin transcript, Esther Perel, a relationship expert, discusses the challenges in modern relationships and the reasons behind their high failure rate. She points out that people often neglect their relationships, treating them as an afterthought compared to other aspects of their lives, such as work and technology. Perel emphasizes the detrimental impact of constant phone use and the lack of presence in relationships, leading to what she terms "ambiguous loss," where someone is physically present but emotionally absent. She encourages small, creative interventions, such as taking walks and offering bids for connection, to improve relationships. Perel stresses the importance of acknowledging and appreciating each other in maintaining a vibrant connection. She addresses the tendency to take partners for granted and underscores the significance of continuous effort and attention to prevent relationships from deteriorating.

Do you think it's because you both work? So much of the modern design has pitted women against men and instead of having peace in the home, it's much harder. I think this was by design really. I hope you two are able to find ways to slow down and not make it a competition. Wishing you the best

Yes with everything you do, it is far, far better to be present and if you can't you change course. You say, sorry I need to attend to this or that or you make a stand with your asleepness and put your phone whatever you one side and be with that person completely or be with whatever you are doing, making fully!

This makes sense, I always did feel the healthy conflict and emotion sharing that turns into coaching for each was the actual relationship. Everything else matters very little. So it was a question of how to Engadge in that and learn together to it

This issue of even looking at a video sent to your partner is something very significant...how can we know the same things to improve us if we both dont look at the info? Brilliant Esther...good to know that little things mean something
@lindatannock10 ай бұрын
The act of just saying thank you, I watched the video you sent, goes a long way! Otherwise the sender is left wondering if the other person even bothered to look at it!
