The idea that certain goals and needs may be accomplished much more quickly and effortlessly when we work as a team even when we are not the happiest of couples at that moment or perhaps not in love with our spouse is undoubtedly true and essential in keeping some union alive.
Why is agreeing so powerful yet difficult?
Coming to an agreement emboldens the essence of teamwork as an essential tool for sustained growth and partnership. The core of each partnership, according to many, is “love,” but unexpectedly, you would be mistaken.
Even though collaborating requires great fortitude, we often tend to undermine our partner’s efforts. This presumably innocent desire of ours to cause them to fail so that we can assert that “we were right and they should have taken our idea” has frequently caused irreconcilable conflicts in many relationships.
Even while many don’t necessarily have bad intentions towards their significant others, their efforts to demonstrate their importance and their obnoxious idea of being needed than how they are currently, overshadows any feeling of love or teamwork. To put it frankly, however, this in no way makes this moral, and one may say that if you can put up with your spouse struggling in order to make a point, then you do not genuinely love that person. However, it might be legitimately countered that this claim is driven by emotions instead of logic.
The reality is that you can’t be in love and know everything. Practically speaking, we must appreciate and cherish our partners as the assets they are. It is strongly believed that as a couple of whatever rankings, it’s only through offering each other the finest possible versions of ourselves, that can we truly learn to correct so many ills and oddities currently plaguing most relationships.
