This week on “The Language of Love,” I am doing a “Bite” episode. These are my short and sweet episodes in which I distill my best sex, love, and relationships advice into concise, actionable steps. These episodes are less than 10 minutes long so they are perfect for those times when you are running short on time but still want a boost for your mind, body, and soul.

For today’s “Bite” episode, I am addressing one of the most common questions I get asked as a relationship therapist: How do I know if my partner is ‘the one’?

Many times, people stay with partners that don’t necessarily tick all of their boxes, but being with someone is better than being alone. Does this sound familiar? If you have every stayed in a relationship that is far from ideal just because you would rather be with someone than be alone, then you need to listen to this “Bite.”

On this episode, you will learn how to:

• Find out if your romantic choices are being driven by fear or by a need to find someone to ‘complete’ you

• How to lean into your intuition to see if you are really in love or if you just don’t want to be alone

• Discover your key childhood wounds that might be playing a role in your fear of being alone or not having a partner

• Stand in your own power and feel complete on your own, whether you are with a partner or you are single

Give this “Bite” episode of “The Language of Love” a listen and then reach out to me on social media to let me know your thoughts! Have you ever stayed in an unhappy relationship just because you are afraid of being alone? Do you ever fear that you are settling just so you don’t have to be single?
