All relationships involve contradictory feelings and thoughts, which means that relational ambivalence is part and parcel of all our relationships. It is important to understand what is important to you and not get involved with someone hoping things will change.
This podcast discusses how ambivalence is a normal part of all relationships, and the importance of understanding one's own priorities to avoid unfulfilled expectations.
This podcast episode discusses four life lessons: the illusion of certainty, the myth of unconditional love, the happiness mandate, and compersion.
In this podcast, the hosts discuss the concept of compersion, which is feeling joy for the happiness of a partner when they are with another person. They explore the notion of wanting the best for the other person and enjoying their growth and successes.
This episode discusses the issue with seeking happiness in a relationship and instead how couples should aim to give each other a foundation from which to launch into their respective worlds.
