Romanticism - Alternatives?
Episode description
If "Romanticism" or Romantic thinking is harmful to relationships, and most of us are on a spectrum of this type of thinking/projection/fantasy, what are some alternatives for the single or partnered person? What are some healthier ways to approach dating or your partner in a relationship, and how to avoid the disappointment when the other does not meet expectations?
-What about Soul Mates?
-What about feeling lonely within a relationship?
-What about the idea that if you fix the relationship, better sex will follow?
Steve and Freja converse on these subjects and would love to hear YOUR thoughts on an ongoing and exploratory conversation series.
