Unconsciously Competing With Your Partner

Who’s…

 

Washing more dishes?

 

Spending more quality time with the kids?

 

Checking off more on your to do lists?

 

Planning more date nights?

 

Doing more, better, faster?

 

It’s a phenomenon. To watch couples go from being loving, passionate, tender…to competing with one another. Keeping score of who’s doing what and who’s not doing enough.

 

You’re also unconsciously competing to see who’s right, more often than not.

 

Competition is a highly masculine quality, and can be healthy and fun in the right doses and context.

 

But when you think about your romantic relationship, is competition really serving to strengthen your connection?

 

If the feminine collaborates, and the masculine competes…

 

Which side do you really want to be on?

 

Competition is one of the many ways we chip at our romantic connections, especially once we’ve merged households, families and possibly, finances.

 

It’s a relationship killer.

 

BUT, once we know this, like truly know this, we can change it.

 

Slowly, carefully and powerfully.

 

This is one of the many beautiful explorations we dive into in School of Love’s ™ Inner Circle. And something you can begin to explore yourself.

 

How do you unconsciously compete with your partner?

 

With love,
