What do you do when your partner (which, of course, could also be you) is not willing to change or acknowledge something that you think is causing problems in one way or another.
This is week three of The Daily Discussion. The theme today is for conscious coupling. The title of today's livestream is what if they don't change? What if they won't change.
All right, cadres, folks, I am not at my usual spot with my little palm tree in my backyard. I am actually in Southern. Southern California for my daughter's volleyball tournament, and her team just won all three of their matches, which is super cool, but it also has me a little late. So this is week three, and the theme today is for conscious coupling. And you know, the title of today's livestream is what if they don't change? What if they won't change? They don't change. And of course, you know, greetings, ladies.
You know, in some ways it's like, of course they don't change. And of course I don't change. And he doesn't change and she doesn't change, and they don't change. We can't change people. But this is like something that's happening, like, real time in my marriage. This is the week for conscious coupling. And I thought, you know what? It's always nice to present things as if you've got them figured out, but it's also cool to figure to present things with when you don't really know what's going on or you're not exactly sure how to navigate it.
And I think that's where I'm at in this one. There's a great line, and it's not meant to be minimizing or pejorative or anything like that, but there's a great line that says if it's historical or if it's hysterical, it's historical. And I definitely was having some quote unquote, hysterical behavior in my relationship. And as I was thinking about doing this live stream, I realized, like, okay, like, I know it's not really about my wife's behavior, but so there's. There's three things, right? There's her behavior, my response to her behavior, like, internally, and then how we talk about my.
How I communicate with her about that behavior. And all three things I was not taught and all three things I did not have even. I had the reverse. I had negative models of. Right. N. Negative examples of. So I'm not going to go into the specifics, but if you are married, I can pretty much guarantee your partner does something you don't like. And I can pretty much guarantee.
