Too much choice = difficulty to commit. Too high expectations = not living in reality (ie. try having realistic expectations). Too focused on our selves (and us wanting love, instead of giving love) = missing/ignoring/not seeing/not loving others. Having lost our tribe/community = bad.

The perfect relationship is the one you have with yourself and the one you have with your bank account. Single and happy with a lot of money is far better than any relationship with anyone. All of these talks are pure BS propaganda. I live happily alone, in a big house with my pets, my beautiful garden in a wonderful area. The interior of my house is my design and my design alone, i never argue with anyone in my house because i don't disagree with myself. When i want to go out for drinks with friends, or on holiday, there is no need to negotiate anything, i go wherever i want whenever i want and come back whenever i do see fit. Children are costly and often turn out to be perfect jerks and make you age prematurely with all the stress they cause, so i don't need those. And even if i wanted kids i can easily adopt them because. Partner are pretty much the adult version of children except they come with baggage and you have to deal with them so you have to compromise and i don't see why i should compromise with anyone about how i choose to live, just for a bit of companionship or for sex. Sex is super easy to find and companionship is provided by friends whom you do not have to take care of. There is really no better and more fulfilling relationship than the one you have with yourself and the one you have with a full bank account because you worked hard to get a good job which allows you to live comfortably. People are often scared to be alone because they see solitude as negative. often because they do not have a lot of money. When you have money you are never lonely. If i feel down i get the best pet sitter in the book even for 500 dollars a day and I jump on a flight to Hawai or the south of France or Japan and i have a blast for a couple of weeks and then i am back home happy and fuelled to face whatever situation comes to me. I don't need a partner to take care of me if i am sick, that's why we have doctors and hospitals and house help, and i don't need kids to take care of me in my old age, that7s why we also have home help and doctors, and in the worst case scenario a retirement house in the mountains of switzerland. People want companionship because they are not rich enough to enjoy life with little money and lack of education or to face social pressure which stigmatizes singles. When i get out of Cartier or Gucci with a new wardrobe and drop my stuff at a hotel to meet friends at a nice restaurant to enjoy a completely free and stressfree night out, and on the way i meet a woman dressed by gap pushing a baby in a stroller with two more kids on the side looking exhausted, asking her husband over the phone to pick up the dry cleaning or get a pizza because she doesn't have the time or energy to cook or telling her kids that they can't have what they want for christmas, i don't feel like i am the one who should feel bad being single ! It validates me in the idea that i made the right decision by choosing ME .

People over think this crap. The best way to get the relationship you want is to let it be known what you want need and expect from your partner no matter how selfish or shallow it may appear to others. If you can be that open and honest from the get go the other person is knowing what your expectations and needs are. This saves a lot of wasted time with the wrong person just because your too chicken to speak up . If you do this and they still want you and you want them it’s much easier . Don’t over think it just grow a pair and be honest even if it chases the other person off.

Doing new things is so true. I tried to emphasize to my ex gf that it's ok to live outside her box..or our box, and just have fun..'wing it'. And when sge did, while hesitant she loved it. But then always fell back into that box. Sadist thing was she was so hurt from her ex husband she just could not open up enough to let me fully inside. And I needed to see her like that, as I'm always open and inviting. I'm sad she was/is so hurt still from her ex, as she does not want that hurt again. And she knew I'd never hurt her, but you can't just throw away hurt, you need time to heal. So I gave her time to heal, and I love her still..immensely, but she must heal before she can let anyone in, without fear of being hurt. I miss her..love her, and pray she finds inner peace.

​@@sheriwilliams8942I did and I texted her a Happy Birthday in August and she thanked me for remembering. But on my Birthday in Sept she did not send a text or on Thanksgiving or the Holidays. I never texted her since August as I'm thinking she's just not interested or too stubborn to admit she wants to try again. I've been dating since we broke up, and had two short term relationships, but both never had that spark, or even close to it. I try to not think about it, but I do miss the times we had together. I never had that deep of a bond before in life, even in marriage. She left off saying she knows we will fall right back madly in love quickly, but is too scared to have and lose it, again. Last she said was she thinks about me at times, but can't risk losing that again. I'll give her all the time but while I've been trying to move on, I can't get reach that bonding we had. And she's not even my type, but that connection was real and I miss it badly..still.

"You learn to love yourself in the context of your relationships with others" - damn. That explains why I never seemed to love myself when every guru or friend told me to. That I need to like myself first before someone else likes me. We do not talk to each other in our family that much on the deeper level. And recently, I spoke to my older sister for about 2 hours. And at the end, or even day later, I felt like I am pretty cool person. I listened to her, provided some feedback, thoughts, I supported her. We had a good discussion on many things. Especially around family and relationships. So, I think this is the golden sentence that I quoted above. How can you love yourself when you have shallow relationships and therefore you the reflection others provide to you by interacting with you is not there? You only see the surface. How you look, what you say, maybe how you say it. Then you get a feeling that "noone understands me".

I actually believe it's luck. I'm in my 30's. In my 20's I met good and bad guys... It didn't matter, I didn't want to get married nor have children. Now, I've worked so hard on becoming my best version...I know who I am, I know what I want, I've forgiven myself, I've overcome traumas, I've forgiven people, blablabla and now that I'm in my 30's and I want something serious, a husband and kids, guess what? if I meet a guy I'm not sexually attracted to him or he doesn't want to commit or he's married or he's poor...I can't build anything with anyone :/ I'm tired of believing in the law of attraction or repairing psychological traumas,etc... I've come to the conclusion it is pure luck from now on... 🤷🏻‍♀️

For me personally to find my love was one of the most challenging things is my life.....After turning 30 I really got desperate......but there was good luck.....a friend of mine invited her collegue......match thanks to her. Luck and help of a friend I would say......If friends try to match you at least try....

Everything she’s saying about how we ask ourselves a lot of questions just reminds me how much I love and respect our Western way of life. So much room for improvement and actual real intimacy that generations of people had not had a chance at, and still don’t in some places in the world.
@snakedogman

and yet we're lonelier and more depressed than ever, not even having enough children to keep our society functioning. This is really not good. What is "real intimacy"? "Improvement" towards what? These are pretty arbitrary concepts.
@preciousmousse
@preciousmousse 5 місяців тому
@@snakedogman I get your perspective too, the economic climate definitely isn't good and it seems more and more like politicians are trying to get populations to grow for cheapest possible. Whoever is making these mistakes is trading culture and social cohesion for something like raw material for the work force. I am not saying that all politicians are bad (just like nobody else in any position is absolutely good or absolutely bad according to their work field and vocation), but my own personal feeling is that some are too removed from reality and too distracted by money. Wealth definitely leads us to self actualization and safety, but the fact that we don't have emotional education in schools and and no prospect of buying a house (in richer countries) is contributing to unhappiness. I think generations before felt lonely too and have seen it first hand, it's probably just the aloneness that is new and the fact that it is not taboo to talk about it anymore (it's not a small community offence anymore to admit you don't like grandma or your neighbor at all). Growth pains? Unhappiness is as old as the Earth itself.

What a gem Esther Perel is! Thank you Lewis for making her talk with your brilliant questions. 👏💐I agree with everything she says. Also trace her thinking structure! How fast and elaborate she thinks! She thinks in detail and in web structure (which women do most often as compared to man by the way 😉) and then she connects everything by making poignant, accurate and simple deductions. What a joy to listen to people like her, like Jordan Peterson and many other eloborate and phylosopical thinkers. 🌿 I agree that when societies are normative where all roles are clearcut set, relationships and marriages are easier. If you are out of the norm or a rule-breaker then you have trouble. I think that is why educated, financially well-off, modern and big-city dwellers have more relationship problems than their traditional, less educated counterparts. I love the idea of the “spark couple” -I felt like she put words to the thread of thoughts that I had all along- these couples are rare but they exist. I also love how she differenciates “love story”and “life story”. “Not all love stories are life story but we want our life story to be a love story.” 🙂 Isn’t that true. I think finding one is not easy but above all finding someone who will have the desire and the dedication to make a life story a love story is more difficult. 😊🌺🌿

She described our parents generation versus ours very accurately. But i don’t believe the previous generation were more happy than us. I saw my parents fight so often and my mother felt so depressed that I wished she had quit my father. They are now 72 and 74 and still together. I never see my parents really had a connection but they learn to live together because they think it’s their duty to keep the family together. Our generation are more foregiving for ourselves and we believe we are worth to have happiness.

Hi Ester and Lewis, How good to look at relationships in this way. In the past and certain cultures, there were more rules, true, but many people were very unhappy and struggled in them, they were suppressed by the rules of their culture. Now, we in the West, have fewer rules, more money, we have more opportunities, so more to choose from. We can be whatever we want to be, within some limits. So we have to discover what we want to be. We are more free. So this will take time to work out.
@gintonicx6
@gintonicx6 Рік тому
I think the opposite, rules are crucial. If your argument is valid, why are most women in western cultures on antidepressants? You are living your life the way you want it, pick your partner from anywhere in the world,you don't have to get married, you don't have to have kids, travel etc. and still no happiness.
