Do I take responsibility for what I do in my relationship?

In a relationship, the couple is in constant change; these changes ask us that we also change and rearrange ourselves in the new relationship.

The possibility of change arises when:

  • I can be aligned with what I do, think, and feel.

  • I can recognize my own needs and express them to my partner – not expecting him/her to meet them.

  • I can recognize and accept my partner's needs even if I am not necessarily able to meet them – I can combine my self-knowledge and empathize with her/him.
