Indeed, love is not only built on top of sexual/romantic attraction, but also the energy, time and patience that is put into improving and learning about each other and fixing the cracks along the way, which a lot of times is definitely not fun. However, this is exactly where the beauty and meaning of love lies, which is, regardless of our differences, the difficulties we have encountered or will encounter, we still choose to stay with each other and love each other.

Alain's humor is just amazing

This channel broadcasts both Alain de Boton as Jordan Peterson. Would be a thrill to have them engage in a conversation with each other.

I have listened to both and they never seem to engage similar issues/level.

I far prefer Alain, as he who is realistic while also being comforting. Rather than follow rules outside of ourselves, as Peterson suggests, de Boton encourages us, however dangerous, to listen to ourselves because we already know the rules, and if we don’t, we will soon. Rather than tell us the direction to go, as Peterson does, Alain makes it easier to accept ourselves exactly as we are, and if we are disappointed with what we see, that’s probably a good thing, because so is everyone else. Jordan Peterson provides a map, whereas Alain de Boton simply shows where we are already going, and why.

Great video, these points are elaborated enough, and you get the harmful perfectionist attitude that many people carry into love.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIPOaIl8ga1gl6c He's really speaking mostly to people of his own class. He's describing romanticism and conflicting beliefs. I think his point is that you can be a good teacher in love and do it kindly and gently. Sometimes you have married an idiot, sometimes you've married a malignant narcissist, and you don't find out until long after the wedding... he's actually not speaking to the extremes but to the average person in a relationship. He's a philosopher, not a psychologist.

As a person who suffers from "nice guy syndrome" I find this very confusing and not very helpful.
@serene2077 жыл бұрын
A generalisation: a person who only behaves nicely is not being honest about what is going on inside them. They want and expect another person to mirror their behaviour. It is an unconscious rule they set up. The video recommends being more self aware and expressive than that.

@Alphacentauri8194 жыл бұрын
Sometimes “nice” guys are the worst... Because, often, they aren’t being authentic. They are putting on a facade, riddled with expectations of a women since they’re so “nice”. A guy who isn’t so “nice”, but real.... we don’t worry about the rug being pulled out. What you see is what you get with a more real guy, who can have very kind and nice traits...but aren’t a “nice guy” “Nice guys” can be scary. I worry about what’s brewing underneath. I fear they are the psychopaths hiding.
