In Episode 18 I talk about what I have learned about relationships through specific lessons in social psychology, as well as anecdotal advice on the importance on communication in relationships, and understanding the context of situations and other perspectives.
Important Points to Note:
- Before you judge/act, put yourself in their shoes and try to understand their point of view
- Trust and Communication create the foundation of a healthy and successful relationship
