S1 Episode 2: Relationship Mining: Uncovering Diamonds in the Rough

Episode Summary

Instead of chasing after the “ideal” partner, focus your attention on a quality person that you may have overlooked.  We often have people in our life that possess the qualities we desire but for some reason we have a mental block from seeing all of this person’s potential because it is not obvious.

When you do uncover a diamond in the rough, it usually results in a mutually beneficial relationship.  The person you uncovered is given the chance to display all of the qualities that had been hidden from the world and you get to reap the benefits of being in a relationship with a person that offers more than meets the eye.  

Even if the relationship does not last, you both end up in a better position than where you started.  You helped a person become a better version of themselves and they in turn appreciate that you were willing to give them a chance to shine.

At the end of each episode, Marlee and Lis vent about commonly experienced issues in romantic relationships. In this episode, the ladies discuss partners that want praise for things they should be doing in the relationship.

Show Notes

You can look for a perfect, utterly desirable partner, but you can also look for a partner who is that diamond in the rough; a person who has great qualities that have yet to be shared or uncovered. Perhaps they aren’t as attractive as they could be or they don’t tick all the boxes right away, but they have tons of potential just waiting to come up to the surface.

Your own mental blocks may lead you to underestimate these people as potential partners. The fact is that until you start removing the layers and become willing to look deeper, you can miss a truly valuable gem of a person.

Finding that diamond in the rough isn’t going to guarantee a lasting relationship, but when you help your partner grow, evolve, and shine, this experience will also be shared by you. By highlighting a person’s best qualities, you get to enjoy those best qualities alongside them.

There are different areas in which you can help your partner achieve greater levels of success, such as intellectual or professional development, emotional growth, and physical attractiveness. Relationship mining is distinctly different from fixing a broken toy because you’re not creating qualities that don’t exist, but you’re elevating what’s already there in the person.

In this episode, the vent session topic is: When your partner wants praise for things they should be doing. This is frustrating and highlights a power imbalance in the relationship. If you make a mess, clean up after yourself. You are equal partners in the household.
