When I Understood This, My Life Changed Completely
Living together in a relationship. A collage
“My bounty is as boundless as the sea.”
“My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite.”
Shakespeare.
Kindness
makes your partner
feel cared for
understood and validatedAlong with emotional stability
kindness is the most important predictor
of satisfaction and stability
in a relationshipThe more someone receives
or witnesses kindness
the more they will
be kind themselveswhich leads to upward
spirals of love
and generosity
in a relationship
On the contrary —
Contempt is the main factor
that tears couples apart.
People who are focusedon criticizing their partners
miss half of positive things
their partners are doing.
They see negativity when it’s not there.
