Are We Asking Too Much of Our Relationships? Get The Spiritual Perspective
Manage episode 494044932 series 2705063
One of the biggest misconceptions we carry into relationships is the idea that our partner is there to make us happy. When they don’t meet this expectation, it’s easy to assume that there’s someone “better” out there—someone with fewer flaws, more compatibility, and better “customer service.”
But here’s the truth: Everyone has flaws, including you. And no matter who you’re with, you’ll eventually have to face the same lessons—because relationships aren’t about perfection; they’re about growth.
In this week’s Spiritual Perspective, I explore:
- Why chasing “better” often leads to the same challenges.
- The illusion of perfection, especially in highly attractive people.
- How matching values—not appearances or resources—is the true key to a lasting connection.
If this resonates, take a moment to reflect on the role of flaws in your relationships. Are they frustrating obstacles—or opportunities for deeper growth and understanding?
