    The reason America has one of the highest divorce rates in the world is because we are way to individualistic as a society we are way to career self oriented. We don't teach people how to have collective communication within a relationship or even in the wider society or even collective goals not just personal goals.

    "Is the best version of me possible in this configuration?" I find that to be the best question to ask oneself in any situation be it marriage, work, etc. And I also resonate with Geo losing her sense of self trying to build Bart's dreams with him. There's such a fine line. And I had to come to terms with stepping back and letting my husband find his his way and build his dreams while I encourage him along the way and cultivate a safe space for him to come home to. It's my biggest fear losing my sense of self and sacrificing my own desired milestones by building someone else. Resentment is real and it can hit hard.

    @camille-7015 Рік тому +73

    The flight attendant metaphor was thought provoking. I think that’s a good thing to ask yourself “am I quitting because I always quit when things get hard?” Or can I say “I’m the type of person who doesn’t give up easily and the fact that I am always struggling in this area is perhaps an indication that things should be re-evaluated/ended” 🤔 you can also be resilient in one area like when it comes to your career and have a habit of quitting when things get hard in relationships. You could consider past romantic relationships, friendships and family relationships to help you determine if perhaps you give up on people too easily

    I desperately love this show. I have watched your career and content for years and it has truly helped me so many times to gain perspective and understand some of my own experiences. What I really want from this show although you have touched on queer relationships, for there to be a discussion about asexuality in relation to polyamory. Because I have commented before wishing that the ways in which polyamorous or even open relationships can function it is rarely addressed that there could be an asexual and allosexual partner with an open relationship simply because it works for them. Not because of any malintent or manipulation. And your show has been so pivotal in explaining to me, as well as Im sure others, how sexuality is experienced and interpretted by the rest of the world in a thoughtful manner. Because it's such an underlying, duh everyone understands, concept in broader society and culture how sexual attraction and interactions work. But in many ways it's very hard to navigate because of that. Love the show and your other channels!

    Chris’s point about not knowing what your show stoppers are until that chord gets struck is such a great point. I guess depending on how the couple decides to resolve the issue with the chord being struck depends on whether they’ll actually move forward with divorce or try to salvage the relationship.

  • @tsunamimami1
    @tsunamimami1 Рік тому +11

    I think what Bart and geo meant about being a cardboard box couple is something I see a lot of couples say when they have once been broke and low and then no longer are.
    Like my man and I met when we were 18. We were young, lived at his sisters house and shared a twin mattress.. 12 years later we have a fucking beautiful life. So since I’ve essentially lived with nothing- by my partners side.. I know that we did greet when we had nothing and we can obviously do great when we have what all we have now.
    So I don’t think they mean point blank we will laugh, giggle and STAY CONTENT in a cardboard box they just mean their love is strong and if they end up in a cardboard box their is nothing that can be taken from them that they don’t feel like can start over and not somehow end up on top again and again eventually.
    Some couples meet when they are already stable and haven’t had to “come up” together so that can be a scary thought - but for the ones who began with nothing together.. it’s not that scary of an idea cuz they lived it and they smiled thru the times they could only afford top ramen and only could dream of success and they can smile with a big bank account vacationing on a yacht.. money won’t make or break their bond and connection to one another.

    ‘I want to like myself in this relationship’ was something that I related to but I don’t agree with. Reason being is that our own value should not be anyone’s responsibility but your own, never found in someone else. Our connections should be based on your self development similarities aligning together. That’s why they call it a match

    Marriage would be a beautiful thing if it weren't so brainwashed by society in the sense that you're supposed to propose with a 10k diamond ring, 10k wedding dress, car, house etc. and just these materialistic bs from marketing. To me, I'll know I have found the one if she doesn't give a crap about any of that, because it's a waste of time and money. Marriage at the end of the day comes down to the small things such as taking out the trash, making dinner for your partner because you know she had a terrible day at work, listening to your partner's rant about her terrible day even though you had an amazing day, etc.
    Loving someone in an actual marriage in reality is basically putting her happiness before yours a lot of time. Sometime it may sucks because your side of need is not being met, but that's why you and your partner need to figure out a way that works for both of you. The key point is to never give up in the end and still doing your best to move forward and grow as a team instead of one person, because marriage is a team effort and not an individual effort. And a success to a marriage is asking yourself whether you want to be right or do you want to be happy?
    Sometime arguing over that conversation and proving your partner you're right can be very detrimental to the relationship itself over time. What do you gain out of proving your partner that you're right? Essentially nothing aside from damaging your relationship. Knowing when to let go of certain thing is also a maturity.
    There's a scenario where the wife keeps asking her husband to wash his cup after he uses it and put it in the dish washer for drying. From the husband's point of view, he doesn't see the point in washing that cup if he's going to use it again an hour later. But to the wife, it's not about conveniences because when her husband keep refusing to wash his cup and leaving it everywhere in the house is a sign that he doesn't listen to her and doesn't take her feelings into consideration. Even something small as just not washing the cup from both people can be two completely perspective. Over the years of this constant argument over not washing a cup can be very detrimental to their relationship. The husband wonder why his wife wants a divorce.
    If people don't take the time to communicate and put themselves in the other person's shoes, divorce is right at the end of the corner. Getting married is easy because you just sign some papers and you're good to go, but staying married is the hard part.

    Oh no please don't refer to Will and Jada as a model of relationships. I feel like Will was very out of touch with his real feelings and put the relationship above his own happiness because he didn't want another divorce. And Jada only cares about herself so they are way out of balance. i think all his life long rage came out that night he slapped Chris Rock. Someone who stuffs their feelings and suppresses their needs all their life are going to explode one day. And that could make for a very dangerous person. I don't think so in Will's case cause he mostly seems like a non-violent person but look what can happen. just imagine if it's a generally violent person. They could just haul off and kill someone. Anyway, i hope Will is getting some real help with being honest with himself. Also most people who opened up their relationships end up regretting it. who doesn't know this? that's crazy to me. Oh no, i don't think this episode aged well at all. I can't listen to Will Smith talk about relationships and self-reflection with such deluded authority sounding like he has it all figured out.

No affairs, no breaks. When you see them the way they look at each other it's pure love. They went through tough times financially and that made their bond stronger.

Truth is there are many good marriages, it may not have been perfect but they survived and are happy.

    I've randomly stumbled onto your channel and I'm glad I did, because I can relate so much to this topic. It's really bitter sweet how normalized getting divorced is nowadays, and it makes me question "why even bother making vows and the whole I DO" when in reality it's only until I want to. Marriage in today's society really doesn't holds it values as it use to anymore. My wife and I just had this talk the other day, and it still shock me how okay she was "if we went our separate way" because that's how reality was, maybe I'm just old fashion and I hold marriage to a higher standard but I wont lie, it really did make me a little sad and it makes me question my life choice with this person.
