How to Be an Adult in Relationships

Résumé du livre

David Richo is a psychotherapist, author, and workshop presenter known for his work in the fields of psychology, personal growth, and spirituality. He has written several books on topics related to relationships, mindfulness, and personal development. Some of his well-known books include "The Five Things We Cannot Change" and "How to Be an Adult in Relationships."

For a relationship to flourish, there are five principles to consider. In other words, as long as we get attention, acceptance, appreciation, affection, and allowance to be who we are, we feel loved. If we give and receive these five A's, we can build stronger, more meaningful relationships, which may even transform the world for the better. Let your anger out in a healthy manner. We deserve the freedom to show our anger as long as it doesn't harm others. For example, in the event of an argument between you and your loved one, leave the room. Say "No!" several times as you walk around outside. You may also walk along to the beat of a sentence explaining why you are angry, such as "Stop being aggressive with me!" Doing this will help you calm down and talk to your partner more clearly afterward.

“Trust in someone means that we no longer have to protect ourselves.”

“The opposite of interpersonal trust is not mistrust. It is despair. This is because we have given up on believing that trustworthiness and fulfillment are possible from others.”

“The challenge is to find our destiny in exactly what we are refusing to engage in.”
