Your relationship expectations could be holding you back | Stephanie R. Yates-Anyabwile (re-release)

Olen kaupungin terapisti ja tÀydellinen romanttipiiri. Puhun kaikesta Notebookista, Twilightista, ja jonkinlainen show, jonka voi muistaa kutsumaan kappaleeseen. Se on todellinen jÀrjestö, jossa kappale oli kappaleeseen kappaleeseen. Mietin paljon yhteiskuntia, ja jotain, joka tulee paljon työssÀni, on se usko, ettÀ yhteiskuntat ovat vaikeita. Ja uskomme, ettÀ se on yksi periaatteellinen syy.

MeidÀn suunnitelmamme on se, mitÀ toiset ovat nÀhneet. Mieti, kuinka huonosti tuntuu, jos kuulet seuraavaksi toisesta ryhmÀstÀ. Okei, sanoin huonosti, okei? Kuulin, ettÀ he eivÀt edes nukkumaan samaan kotiin enÀÀ. He uskovat, etteivÀt koskaan halua nukkumaan. En usko, ettÀ he koskaan suunnittelevat elÀmÀÀn yhdessÀ.

Kuuntelitko itsellesi, ettÀ heillÀ on joitain tÀrkeitÀ asioita? Jos olemme onnellisia, useimmat olisivat. Ja se ei ole siksi, ettÀ emme ole yksityiskohtaisia, vaan olemme opettaneet, ettÀ nÀmÀ ovat varauksia yhteiskuntaan haasteeseen. Ja vaikka ne voivat olla paljon ihmisille, se ei aina ole tapauksena.

Relationship experts have found that one of the primary obstacles that couples face are their own expectations. When we compare ourselves to societal norms, we can develop a sense of resentment toward our partner, as well as a sense of shame for how we ourselves are coming up short.

Now, before we really get into this, I have to say that some of us have to reckon with the fact that we may be with the wrong person. And that will be clear if your deepest desire is that your partner change fundamental aspects of who they are. You really want them to be a different person. But if you're confident that you're with the right person,

and you just still feel frustrated and dissatisfied, we may find that rejecting everything we've known about good relationships is the key to actually having one. I work with couples every day and I help them through relational crises. I remember I was working with an engaged couple for about a year, and when they first came to me, they said, we're 95 percent good, we just want to address the 5 percent.

Kuulemme tÀmÀn vaikutuksen usein, kun tapaamme kaupungin ensimmÀistÀ kertaa. TÀmÀ 5 prosentti oli enemmÀn kuin 75 prosenttia ja lisÀÀntynyt. He etsivÀt tekemÀÀn yhdessÀ perusteltavaa perustelua. Yksi partneri oli lapsia, toinen ei ole koskaan elÀnyt lapsilla, ja he muuttuivat yhdessÀ yhdessÀ yhdessÀ ymmÀrtÀmÀllÀ yhdessÀ vain kolme kuukautta.

One time I went on vacation, and by the time I got back, they'd called off their wedding. But why? Their love was honestly, it was evident, and they were not cruel to each other. Their issue was figuring out how to continue building their romantic relationship, while also figuring out how to raise teenagers, who, to be honest, already had two very involved parents. They weren't really in need of a third.

After a particularly big blowup over chores and responsibilities, I finally asked a dangerous question. I said, do you think that living together has hurt or helped your relationship more?

TED Talks Daily

We took a few weeks to explore that question, and they decided to test it out. They got a short-term lease on an apartment nearby for the partner who didn't have kids. And we were really strategic. We made a contract. Let's talk about dates, let's talk about expectations while you guys are living separately.

Ja kun he tuli takaisin minulle, en ole koskaan nÀhnyt heitÀ kommunikoida niin hyvin. He sanoivat, ettÀ he olivat odottaneet kaikkia viikkoja, joita he olivat saaneet kÀsitellÀ yhdessÀ. Se tuntui kuin loppu, koska he olisivat kÀsitelleet koko viikon, suunnittelemaan aikaa yhdessÀ ja saavuttamassa kaikkia hetkiÀ, joita he olivat saaneet yhdessÀ.

They also found that their individual relationships with the kids drastically improved without the pressure of trying to transition them into an entirely new household dynamic, especially when they only had a couple of years left in the house. So at this point, some of you may be asking yourselves, what kind of couples therapist recommends that couples live apart? That's a fair question, and to be honest, for a majority of my clients, this solution would not work.

And that is the point. When we're thinking about our relationships, we have to avoid focusing on what is normal. There's no such thing as normal when we're talking about two unique individuals with their own backgrounds and their own values. For this particular couple, they had to figure out a way to separate their romantic relationship from what really boiled down to roommate issues. And they had a circumstance that supported the option to live apart.

One conflict that comes up a lot in my work is the difference in values between arriving on time and arriving looking and feeling your best. Neither one is wrong. But I had a great model for this with my parents. When I was growing up, we drove absolutely everywhere separately.

Jokaisessa paikassa. Jos olet vÀhÀn myöhÀssÀ, menet isommin. Jos menet aikaan, menet isommin. HeillÀ oli liian monia vansseja, joista oli vain kaksi lasta. Me ei menneet mitÀÀn yhdessÀ.

Yksi kerta, kun olin noin 12-vuotiaana, yksi suurimmista ystÀvyyksistÀni kuitenkin teki kokemuksen kysyÀ minulle tÀstÀ. Voin kertoa, ettÀ hÀn oli niin nervoinen, ettÀ aloitin selittÀmÀÀn hÀnelle, ettÀ vanhemmat olivat yksityiskohtaisesti yksityiskohtaiset, ja hÀn vain löysi sen. Nyt kun ajattelen siitÀ, toivon, ettÀ hÀnen isÀnsÀ tuli hÀntÀ tÀhÀn.

Se, mikÀ on mielenkiintoista, on se, ettÀ hÀnen vanhempansa jatkoivat seurauksensa, ja minun vanhempani pysyivÀt yhdessÀ 23 vuotta ennen kuin isÀni liikkui. TiedÀnkö se, ettÀ se oli heidÀn takanaan yksin? Tietysti ei. Mutta mielestÀni se nÀyttÀÀ meille kaksi asiaa. EnsinnÀkin se nÀyttÀÀ meiltÀ, ettÀ jokainen sÀÀstys normaaleista voidaan soittaa ymmÀrrykseen ja jopa julkaistuksiin.

Se myös nÀyttÀÀ, ettÀ jos me pÀÀtÀmme tehdÀ asioita hieman erilaisesti, voimme vÀlttÀÀ eroja, kun on todella haastavaa pÀivÀÀ yhdessÀ tai lÀhellÀ pÀivÀÀ yhdessÀ, kun otamme yhdessÀ eroja, eikÀ yhdessÀ, vaan yksittÀisesti.

Instead of trying to change our partners, what if we instead embraced their differences, our difference in values, and released the pressure of doing what everyone else is doing? It's okay to be a stay-at-home dad. It's okay if you prefer to travel without each other. It's okay if you need to have your own bedrooms so you can maintain personal space and be sane for each other. It's okay if you want to break tradition and create a new last name.

It's okay if you want to share your love on social media, but it's also okay if you want to protect it from public opinion. It's okay if you're in a season of life where you both just cannot prioritize sex. It's okay if people are confused about your relationship. It was never theirs to understand in the first place.
