In this insightful podcast episode recorded on September 6th, we tackle the often-misguided expectations that can lead to disappointment and disillusionment in long-term relationships. While the passion and commitment of new love relationships are intoxicating, they can promise feelings and behaviors that established relationships may struggle to sustain.
Discover the eight expectations that are commonly promised in the early stages of a relationship but shouldn't be taken for granted in the long run:
The idea of owning each other's "lives."
Always being ready to fulfill each other's needs and desires.
Assuming the rescuer will always prioritize your well-being.
Keeping score in the relationship.
Believing in unconditional love forever.
Expecting to always be each other's number one priority.
Believing you'll always be perfectly compatible.
Assuming that you'll always completely embrace each other's interests.
As we delve into these expectations, we explore how relationships evolve and the importance of communication and adaptability in maintaining a healthy and thriving partnership. Join us for an eye-opening discussion that can help you navigate the challenges and joys of long-term love.
