Reality Check: What Do You Bring to the Relationship?
S1 Episode 12: Reality Check: What Do You Bring to the Relationship?
Episode Summary
Self-awareness is a gift that keeps on giving as long as you are willing to be open to the truth. Some of us (often women) focus too much energy on looking for a partner that checks certain boxes without taking into account what qualities we actually bring to a relationship.
When you are honest with yourself about your strengths and weaknesses, you will be able to focus your energy on finding a partner that balances you. Look for a person with complementary skill sets and a genuine appreciation for who you are as an individual. The more you can offer a potential mate, the more you can expect in return. While you should never over-value what you offer, make sure to not fall into the trap of under-valuing your worth as a life partner.
There is no shame in admitting your limitations. The more self-aware you are, the more likely you will be willing to work on issues that have impeded you from maintaining or finding a healthy long-term relationship.
At the end of each episode, Marlee and Lis vent about commonly experienced issues in romantic relationships. In this episode, the ladies discuss when a partner is too scared to break up with you and they behave like a jerk so that you will do their dirty work.
Show Notes
It’s time for a reality check: What do you bring to the relationship? A lot of people struggle to find a good relationship because they are not realistic with what they bring to the table. Forget their laundry list of wants and needs—they lack self-awareness about their value.
Some women tend to have a more specific laundry list when they’re looking for a potential partner. We tend to get so busy looking to check off our list that we forget to look at ourselves and what we offer. Some people really think they are “the cat’s meow” and that they have so much to offer. Then again, there are other women who actually under-sell what they bring to a relationship.
What you bring into a relationship isn’t just about your good qualities. It also includes your baggage. Regardless of what stage in your relationship your are in right now, step back and think about what you can offer as a partner. If it’s dynamite, reach for the stars and look for equally great qualities in your partner.
Otherwise, you are free to be more realistic about what an appropriate match looks like for you. Do yourself a favor and check in so you can ensure the partner you end up with is actually the right one for you.
In this episode, the vent session topic is: When your partner becomes a jerk because they're too scared to break up with you and want you to do it yourself. It’s incredibly disrespectful to the person you’re dumping. It’s immature, dishonest, and manipulative. It leaves the dirty work to a partner who won’t get the proper closure they deserve.
