The Heart Break of Romantic Relationship
The Heart Break of Romantic Relationship
“We are set up to fail to get our needs met in Romantic Relationships in the same way that we are set up to fail in life - by being taught false beliefs about who we are and why we are here in human body, false beliefs about the meaning and purpose of this dance of life.” “As long as we believe that someone else has the power to make us happy then we are setting ourselves up to be victims.” “Almost any “problem” encountered in a Romantic Relationship is a symptom / effect of some deeper “problem” within our relationship with our self! And we live in a culture where we are taught that the “right”/successful Romantic Relationship can make all those other problems go away! Like, duh, no wonder we have problems with Romantic Relationships.” “As long as you believe that the other person is the source of your happiness you will feel compelled to try to control them so that you can stay happy. You can not control them and be happy.”
On this page is the first page of a web article by codependency therapist/Spiritual Teacher about how we are set up to have our hearts broken in romantic relationships.
