20 Warning Signs of an Emotionally Abusive Relationship

June 5, 2015 by Power of Positivity

An emotionally abusive relationship is harmful to your confidence and self-esteem, and you may not even be aware of the abuse. Unlike physical abuse that causes physical pain and leaves visible markings, the signs of emotional abuse are not as apparent.

Research shows that emotional abuse is as damaging to a person as both physical and sexual abuse. The study that followed 846 at-risk children over a 14-year period shows that the most common abuse is the psychological threat to safety and security.

The reason emotional abuse is so harmful is that it affects how we think about ourselves. Abusers issue out actions, attitudes, and words that intentionally demean and humiliate. They do this as a form of control. In fact, they often leave the victim feeling confused, powerless and afraid.

All abuse directly attacks our self-esteem, but emotional abuse does it directly by linking our self-worth to being loved. You might be surprised to learn that several studies show emotional abuse occurs at the hands of men and women at equal rates. It can happen in any relationship.

Here are 20 warning signs of an emotionally abusive relationship:

You might be in an emotionally abusive relationship if they do any of the following behaviors:

Constantly humiliate you in front of other people.
Criticize your actions as being less than perfect makes you feel as if you can’t do anything right.
Tell mean, inappropriate and demeaning jokes.
Want to be in control of everything including your actions.
Constantly remind you of your shortcomings and failures.
Do not value your feelings and often will tell you that you are wrong and that you are too sensitive.
Give disapproving and dismissive looks that leave you fearful of being alone with them.
Withhold displays of affection and sex as a form of punishment.
Belittle your dreams and accomplishments.
Share your private moments and your secrets with others against your wishes.
Do not think you are capable of knowing what is best for you.
Blame you for their problems, their mood, and their overall unhappiness.
Can’t laugh at themselves, and they get extremely sensitive when others laugh at or make fun of them.
Make you feel wrong for wanting to see your friends or do anything fun without them.
Always make you feel as if you aren’t good enough for them and that you should be thankful to be in the relationship.
Insist on always being right while you are always wrong.
Issue subtle threats that are disguised as a suggestion to help you.
Control the finances so they can control your actions and how you spend money.
Constantly call or text to check up on you, who you are with and what you are doing when you are not together.
Accuse you of things that are not true, so you are forced to prove your love.

You must understand…

This list isn’t comprehensive by any means. But when there is a feeling that we can’t be our authentic self and that we are constantly in fear of doing or saying the wrong thing; we need to evaluate if the relationship is emotionally abusive.

Emotionally abusive people are conditioned to make us feel that they are superior and that we don’t deserve them. They make us feel like we deserve to be treated the way we are and that we are lucky to be in a relationship with them. They are masters at manipulating the way we feel.

This is not our fault. We are not to blame. There is probably little that we can do to change the behavior or improve the relationship. Recognize it for what it is, abuse.

Left alone, the stress of an emotionally abusive relationship can manifest itself in the form of illness, depression and even long-term emotional trauma. That’s why it is important first to recognize the behavior and then seek help. Recognizing the behavior can be difficult because we are so attached to the relationship, that we don’t want to think about letting it go. That’s why we need to be aware of some key signs that the relationship isn’t serving us.

Since it is so hard to see from the inside of a relationship, as a friend we should be looking for these signs in the relationships of those we love. It might take an outside eye to spot emotionally abusive behavior. Proceed with caution because it can be a challenging conversation to have.

If you begin to notice the signs of an emotionally abusive relationship, whether it’s you or someone you care about, seek professional help. Just because the relationship isn’t violent yet, doesn’t mean it won’t escalate and you should get a clear understanding of the situation from someone trained to help everyone stay safe.

This Is How Your Brain Reacts When You Face Fear

June 5, 2015 by Power of Positivity

You know that feeling. It’s the one you get when you have a speech to give next week in front of hundreds of people. Or, it’s the sinking feeling when you’re about to ride a rollercoaster or move to a new city. Doing anything new in life can seem terrifying. Moreover, fearing the outcome keeps many people in a place where they do not thrive. This keeps them miles away from any fears they might have.

The Northwestern University Study on Fear

However, new research from Northwestern University suggests that facing your fears can actually squash them completely – they determined that one positive encounter with spiders stuck with people who had arachnophobia even six months later.

After six months, researchers found that the regions of the brain responsible for creating fear remained mostly inactive after the participants spent two hours in an exposure therapy session. In the session, they actually touched a live tarantula. Changes in the brain occurred immediately after the therapy session. And, they remained the same even six months later, according to lead author and therapist of the study, Katherina Hauner.

“Before treatment, some of these participants wouldn’t walk on grass for fear of spiders or would stay out of their home or dorm room for days if they thought a spider was present,” she said. “But after a two or three-hour treatment, they were able to walk right up and touch or hold a tarantula. And they could still touch it after six months. They were thrilled by what they accomplished.”

According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), about 8 percent of Americans report having a “specific phobia.”

They define a phobia as a “marked and persistent fear and avoidance of a specific object or situation.”

Because of their deep-seated fear, patients gradually approached the spider during the therapy session. Before the therapy, the participants showed severe anxiety about even looking at photos of spiders. When they did, the regions of the brain responsible for producing fear – the amygdala, insula, and cingulate cortex – showed significant activity in an f MRI scan.

After being presented with photos, participants tried touching the tarantula in a closed terrarium. Or, they at least got in close proximity to the spider. On average, they left about 10 feet between them and the spider, and couldn’t physically or mentally come any closer.

During the therapy session, participants first touched a live tarantula with a paintbrush, then a gloved hand, and finally just their bare hand over the course of two hours. They also learned about tarantulas and discovered that they were a lot less harmful and dangerous than they originally thought.

“It’s this idea that you slowly approach the thing you’re afraid of. They learned that the spider was predictable and controllable, and by that time, they feel like it’s not a spider anymore.”

What Triggers Fear in Your Brain

The study proves that the brain undergoes major changes when a person becomes exposed to their greatest fear, and the regions of the brain associated with fear actually remain the same even six months down the road. Following the therapy, the participants had very little activity in their amygdalas, a region of the brain that controls fear responses. Six months later, this part of the brain remained relatively dormant when the participants once again met with the tarantulas.

Hauner says the study provides direct evidence that exposure therapy yields success and can potentially treat others who have extreme phobias. She says a similar type of therapy could work on people with fears of confined spaces, heights, flying, blood, and more.

“It has to be an innocuous object or situation—it’s not a phobia if you’re scared of sharks and don’t want to go in shark-infested water,” she says. “That’s called being safe.”

In the near future, therapists hope that they can find a way to inhibit the part of the brain responsible for fear. Or, they hope to stimulate the region of the brain that blocks fear in order to develop new therapies.

“There’s already techniques we use to stimulate regions of the brain to treat depression and [obsessive-compulsive disorder],” she says. “It’s not too far off in the future that we can use these techniques to treat other types of disorders.”

While danger does exist, we consciously create fear in our minds based on our past experiences with a person or object. Remember this next time you feel afraid of something because you have complete control over your thoughts and emotions. If you can’t shake the feeling of fear, just do whatever it is you’re afraid of. Then, you’ll find that fear will instantly vanish.

7 Ways To Overcome Loneliness

June 4, 2015 by Power of Positivity

Despite the growing global population, more people report feeling lonely and isolated than ever before. In a world of more than 7 billion, most of us feel alone, abandoned, or rejected, and we long to feel like part of a group. Humans are social animals and need to feel that they belong somewhere. We don’t like loneliness.

Many researchers predict that we will soon have a “loneliness epidemic,” and unfortunately, prolonged loneliness can increase your chances of early death by 30%.

So, how can you combat this potentially deadly feeling and get more connected to others?

Here are 7 Ways To Overcome Loneliness

1. Reach out to others, and join groups with similar interests as yours.

In order to overcome loneliness, you need to feel a common bond with others. How do you go about doing this? Well, the easiest way is to research local meet-ups and groups that you have an interest in joining. If you enjoy cycling, why not share your favorite hobby with others in your area? If you look around, you will find that other people long to connect just as much as you do, so don’t hesitate to reach out to them.

We all have an intrinsic need to feel accepted by others, and connecting with like-minded people could turn out to be the best decision you’ve made for your mental and emotional health.

2. Get to know yourself better.

“You cannot be lonely if you like the person you’re alone with.” – Wayne Dyer

In all honesty, you must learn to enjoy your own company before you can truly appreciate the company of others. Otherwise, you will only want to connect with other people out of desperation in an attempt to escape from yourself. You have to go deep within and break all the chains that bind you so that you can finally leave behind any emotional trauma from the past.

You must learn to totally love yourself before anyone else can offer you the same sentiment. Otherwise, you will continue to feel loneliness even in a room of thousands, unless you heal your wounds from the inside out. It will seem much easier to connect with others once you’re fully in tune with your own self.

3. Talk to someone new when you’re out and about.

How many times do you notice people’s heads in their phones when you go out in public nowadays? Maybe you have fallen into this habit as well, so try to put away your phone for a change and go up to someone new. Strike up a conversation with the girl at the grocery store check-out, or the person waiting at the bus stop, or the jogger at the running trail that you frequent.

You have a chance to connect with someone pretty much anywhere you go; we have a world occupied by more people than ever before, so really, we all don’t have much of an excuse for feeling lonely. It just takes reaching out to someone and not limiting ourselves to our current reality.

4. Spend less time on technology, and more time in the real world to avoid loneliness.

We can instantly connect with almost anyone online, but it just doesn’t compare with a face-to-face human connection. We can’t hug someone online, or see the change in their facial expressions, or feel the energy of the person through the computer or phone. Try to limit your technology use to a few hours a day if you can. Indeed, you will find that you have much more time to bond with your current friends and even make connections with new ones. If you don’t know where to start, first think about the businesses or parks you frequent. You likely talk to the same people at the places you go most often, so why not try to cultivate a friendship with them?

5. Ask yourself if your feelings actually represent reality or not.

Not to argue that loneliness is definitely a growing reality in our modern world, but does a temporary feeling accurately depict your entire life? Maybe you have a tight-knit group of friends and family, but just feel lonely in the moment. If that’s the case, try to figure out what brought this feeling on. Has it been a while since you last saw your friends? Should you call your family to check in with them? Or, maybe you need to do some self-reflecting and spend some time alone for a while, just reconnecting with yourself.

Sometimes our feelings don’t always mirror our reality, so make sure to tune in to these emotions whenever they arise.

6. Focus your attention on helping others instead of focusing it on your own feelings.

Volunteering makes a great way to both connect with other people, and also take the focus off of yourself. Think about how many people live on the streets every day with virtually no source of consistent food or water, no safe place to lay their heads at night, and no real friendships to support them.

So many people suffer much more than we could ever imagine, and we can all do something to help them. By helping others, you will, in turn, help yourself, so look for local charities or soup kitchens to volunteer your time at. This will instantly make you forget about any loneliness you may have felt before, and reconnect you to one of the basic foundations of human existence: helping one another.

7. Get involved in activities that you truly enjoy.

You don’t have to join a group to meet other people. For instance, if you enjoy traveling, you will likely cross paths with other people along the way who share your love for seeing new places. On your bike route, you will probably meet someone else who also cycles along the same path, and maybe you can make this person your biking buddy. Or, you might find a new workout buddy at the gym you go to. Indeed, there are countless ways to meet new people, you just have to release any fears you might have and open yourself up a bit.

We all have more similarities than differences, so you can find a common bond with almost anyone if you try. You CAN overcome loneliness; all it takes is a commitment to reaching out to others, and the willingness to open your heart to others who long for connection just as you do.

Which Food Are You Drawn To? Here’s What It Reveals About Your Chakras

May 31, 2015 by Power of Positivity

As you delve deeper into the journey of self-development, you will likely hear about chakras, or “wheels” of energy. The chakras located throughout the body that helps us stay balanced and connected to our spiritual selves. We have 7 chakras through which energy flows through our physical and energetic bodies; when aligned properly, you will feel lighter, more vibrant, and connected to all that is.

However, many people’s chakras are out of alignment due to many factors. These include a poor diet, stress, and overall disconnection from their highest selves. Luckily, you can help rebalance your chakras by eating certain foods specific to each energetic field in the body (pretty cool, huh)?

These 70 foods can help heal chakras and get the energy flowing freely throughout your body. Also, use the following list of included affirmations to help balance each chakra.

7 Foods You Can Eat To Bring Your Chakras Into Alignment

1. Root Chakra

If you picked the apple, you must pay attention to the root chakra…

Located at the base of the spine, the root chakra corresponds with the vibrational frequency of security, stability, and basic human survival. To balance this chakra, connecting to Gaia and meditating on “I AM” affirmations are vitally important. That’s because we must first connect with our earthly home before moving up through the other chakras to higher realms. In addition to grounding yourself through walks with nature and meditation, you can also eat certain foods to aid you in the process of feeling closer to Earth and connected with your Spirit Tribe.

Foods to eat: red-colored foods such as apples and pomegranates, root veggies such as carrots, radishes, and beets, red beans, quinoa, almond/cashew butter, and spices such as paprika, cayenne pepper, and chili powder

Affirmation: “I am safe, secure, and grounded within my body. I am connected to myself and Mother Earth, and all is well.”

2. Sacral Chakra

If you picked the orange, you should pay attention to the sacral chakra…

The sacral chakra is located right under the belly button in the lower abdomen, and governs our sexuality, creativity, and emotions. It’s represented by the color orange, which correlates with living a vibrant, joyous life. When balanced, you will feel better able to go with the flow in life, express yourself creatively, have a healthy relationship with yourself and others, and love and respect your body.

Foods to eat: Obviously, eating orange foods is best for this chakra. Oranges, cantaloupe, passion fruit, and mangoes should be your go-to fruits, and you should also consume healthy fats, such as almonds, walnuts, cashews, and sesame seeds. Also, use spices such as cinnamon, carob, and ginger in your tea or morning coffee.

Affirmation: “I feel vibrant, beautiful, strong, and passionate about life. I am emotionally connected to myself and others, and let the universal energy flow through me freely.”

3. Solar Plexus Chakra

If you picked the banana, you need to pay attention to the solar plexus chakra…

Colored bright yellow, this chakra helps us in digesting foods, controlling our egos, mastering self-confidence, learning, and growing as spiritual beings. It lies in the stomach area, and serves as sort of a gateway between the lower and upper chakras, therefore transforming our fiery, egocentric desires into a more harmonious and balanced energy. This chakra helps us express ourselves to the world while also allowing us to connect with others, aligning our inner and outer environments.

Foods to eat: complex carbs, such as whole grains like pasta, cereal, bread, rice, and legumes. Also, yellow vegetables and fruits like bananas, yellow peppers, squash, and corn. For spices, go for coriander, fennel, turmeric, cumin, and anise.

Affirmation: “I see myself as a successful, confident, and powerful being capable of overcoming any challenges I may face.”

4. Heart Chakra

If you picked the dark chocolate, you should pay attention to the heart chakra…

Located in the center of the chest, this chakra spins with an earthy green color, representing renewal, rebirth, and transcendence of emotional pain into feeling loving kindness toward ourselves and others. It is here where many imbalances occur, because our hearts carry a lot of weight from past pain and emotional scars. To cleanse ourselves of this emotional blueprint, we must meditate on unconditional love and compassion toward our past selves, current selves, and every other being on the planet.

Foods to eat: Green, cruciferous vegetables like kale, broccoli, swiss chard, mustard and collard greens, romaine lettuce, and cabbage. Green tea, dark chocolate, celery, basil, sage, thyme, cilantro, and parsley are great for this chakra, also.

Affirmation: “I give and receive love unconditionally, and know that love can heal all emotional wounds.”

5. Throat Chakra

If you picked the blueberries, you must pay attention to the throat chakra…

Located in our throats, this chakra is represented by a pale blue, and governs our ability to speak truthfully and openly. It also relates to our free will, ability to make sound decisions, and surrender to our highest selves. This chakra serves as the medium through which our thoughts and feelings from other chakras move through our bodies and ultimately out into the world in the most pure, expressive form.

Foods to eat: Sea plants, fruits, juices, soups, blueberries, plums, lemons, limes, grapefruits, kiwis.

Affirmation: “I allow truth to move through me effortlessly, and express my thoughts clearly and honestly.”

6. Brow (Third Eye) Chakra

If you picked the grapes, you need to pay attention to the brow, or third eye chakra…

Right in the middle of our foreheads, it spins with a dark blue hue and helps us tap into our divine wisdom and universal truths. It allows us to see beyond the earthly limitations and connect with our spiritual selves; it also represents our intuition and internal guidance, which we must use in order to follow our own special life purpose and fulfill our duties on Earth as spiritual beings.

Foods to eat: Purple potatoes, red onions, grapes, blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, acai berries.

Affirmation: “I am guided, inspired, and deeply connected to the divine universal wisdom flowing through me. I see myself as a spiritual being here to serve Earth on my own unique life path.”

7. Crown Chakra

If you picked the water, you must pay attention to the crown chakra…

Located at the top of our heads, this chakra fuses our physical body with our higher self or energetic body. This allows us to connect completely with Source energy. It moves us further into the higher realms. Indeed, it moves us away from Earth and into a beautiful, peaceful state of being with the Oneness of the universe.

Foods to eat: Since this chakra connects us so much with Spirit and less with our physical bodies, no foods are recommended for balancing this energy force. Purple foods can help, similar to the third eye chakra, bit it mainly thrives on the lightest forms of energy possible. So drink lots of water (to detox). Also, receive plenty of sunlight, air, love, and practice meditation.

Affirmation: “I know my highest self and ultimate purpose, and am One with all of the universe and Source energy. I Am Light.”

7 Ways to Put Bitterness Behind You

May 30, 2015 by Power of Positivity

Bitterness can rear its ugly head for a variety of reasons, whether you still hold a grudge about a fallout between you and a friend, you had a bad break-up recently, or maybe you feel frustrated at yourself for previous failures. No matter the case, feeling bitter can seriously affect your mental health and even make you feel sick. The research continues to build regarding the importance of a healthy, positive mindset, so make sure to use these tips to leave bitterness behind you.

7 Ways to Put Bitterness Behind You:

1. Leave the past where it belongs.

Try not to rehash negative experiences or dwell on things you cannot change; instead, set your sights on the present moment and thank the past for all the invaluable lessons it taught you. Just because you had unfortunate experiences previously doesn’t mean that you will encounter these again – you just have to accept that your past served a purpose in your life, and turn the page to the next chapter in your story.

2. Forgive everyone who hurt you.

“As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew that if I didn’t leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I’d still be in prison.” -Nelson Mandela

By holding on to past pain, you only perpetuate it in the present. You give it oxygen and a place to call home. If you want to keep the bitterness from leeching the energy from you, you must forgive those who caused the resentment in the first place. You don’t have to forget what happened, and you don’t have to accept these people back into your life. However, you must forgive their words and behavior if you desire a peaceful, drama-free life.

3. Focus on what you love about your life.

A surefire way to keep bitterness alive is to focus on everything you hate about life, but a guaranteed way to squash negativity is to redirect your attention to what you love. Where attention goes, energy flows, so thinking about stressful, undesirable experiences will only breed more of the same. If you want to leave your shadows in the dust, simply develop a more grateful attitude and get excited about life! Then, you’ll start seeing a major change in your life experiences and how you view your surroundings.

4. Don’t play the victim.

Bitterness often resides in those who blame things outside themselves for the occurrences in their lives. When you think people have wronged you or have caused you undue hardship in life, you start to become jaded about everyone you meet. You start to think everyone is out to get you when in reality, you could develop wonderful friendships with people by taking responsibility for your actions and emotions. You can create whatever life you choose and manifest whatever people you want into your life; it just depends on your attitude at the moment.

5. Put more effort into cultivating your passions.

If you feel bitter about failing in the past, it can never hurt to keep trying. Remember, you only fail when you give up, so staying persistent is the key to success. You can’t possibly remain angry about your life if you put in consistent effort and develop a headstrong attitude. Follow your passions in life, and use your ambition to launch you into a different reality. If you create a life you enjoy, you won’t feel tempted to revert back to your old thinking patterns.

6. Don’t ruminate on things you can’t change.

If you look at the world too long, you will probably notice the widespread chaos and destruction and become angry at those causing it. We could all sit around and complain about the broken economy, the deceitful government, the greedy corporations, and so on, but what good will that do? Complaining and fixating on things outside of our control will only leave us feeling desperate and weak while focusing our energy on what we can change makes us feel empowered and in control of our life. Change what you can, and let everything else run its course. All things will balance out in time because that is the nature of the universe.

7. Give more value to your life.

Maybe you feel bitter because you don’t feel you’re contributing enough to society. In that case, provide whatever you can to your immediate community. Give old clothing to the homeless, donate food to the local food bank, organize meet-ups to encourage people to make real-life connections, and support one another; lend whatever skills you have to make the world a better place. Bitterness can’t live in the presence of compassion and understanding, so if you feel angry, simply make someone else feel better. You, too, will start healing once you dedicate your life to adding more value to someone else’s.

5 Reasons to Date Someone Who Is Your Opposite

May 29, 2015 by Power of Positivity

When it comes to dating, you’ve probably witnessed your close friends and family unanimously agree that finding a partner exactly like you will bring long-term happiness and success in the relationship. And having a few common interests and basic outlook on life is important. However, dating someone too similar to yourself could lead to stagnancy, boredom, and dissatisfaction down the road.

Why?

Well, think about dating a clone of yourself. Having the same likes and dislikes, the same quirks, same hobbies, exact same personality, taste in food. You would eventually feel trapped and complacent. In fact, you’d likely seek someone who complimented you rather than mirrored you.

Biologically speaking, we are hardwired to be attracted to people that are different than us. Take the famous 1995 experiment, for example. A group of women smelled the sweaty T-shirts of men. Then, they stated a stronger attraction to the scent of men who were genetically dissimilar to them. This is cited as one of the most important modern scientific studies. That’s because it lends truth to the saying that opposites do, indeed, attract. In the end, our bodies just want to prevent inbreeding, so we look for a mate with diverse genes in comparison to ours.

So, besides the chance of having offspring much better equipped for living a healthy life, why else should you date your opposite?

Here are 5 reasons to date someone that is vastly different than you:

1. You complement one another.

Like we talked about before, dating someone too much like yourself would become stifling, boring, and wouldn’t stimulate your personal growth after a while. The most striking difference between opposites is undoubtedly their personalities, and dating someone with a personality unlike yours can accent your strengths and help improve your weaknesses.

Maybe one of you is a shy introvert who just likes to spend time at home and not socialize with people too often. Your partner might have a more extroverted, loud personality, encouraging you to get out more and connect with others. Furthermore, the shy partner might teach the outgoing one to mellow out a bit, listen more, and take time to relax. Over time, both of you would find that you encourage each other to grow in the areas where you would have otherwise remained the same had you dated a clone of yourself.

2. You can teach each other new things about life.

Dating someone with the exact same hobbies and interests won’t facilitate much growth in the relationship, because you will never be able to share new things with your partner. However, dating someone with stark differences in hobbies will make you a more well-rounded, interesting person in the long run since you will learn so much from your partner. Maybe he or she is an avid skier who can show you the ropes of the slopes. On the other hand, maybe you enjoy quieter, calm pastimes like drawing or knitting, and you can teach him or her all about it.

The relationship will thrive more because you will constantly have new things to share, which will give you a fuller experience of life in general.

3. The relationship will seem more exciting and fulfilling.

Your partner will likely come from a different background, therefore having very different experiences in life than you. You may have opposite tastes in food, differences in spiritual beliefs, varying desires of places you want to travel to, and the list goes on.

All of these dissimilarities means that you will constantly be showing each other new places to go, new foods to try, different facts about your heritage and background, and more. This will enable you to keep the spark alive and really enjoy getting to know the person you’re with. It will feel like a never-ending adventure, with both of you taking one another to uncharted territory. You will push the envelope with your partner, and not tire as easily of their company.

4. You will always have more to discover about each other.

When you date someone exactly like you, you don’t allow much room to explore the person. After you share all your hobbies, childhood stories, and deeply-held beliefs and passions, what else will keep the fire alive? Any relationship needs some diversity and excitement in order to keep the ball rolling, and dating your opposite will breathe new life into the relationship.

Because of your many differences, you will always have something new to uncover, keeping you both on your toes constantly. This way, you won’t grow bored with one another’s company and will have a more broadened experience of life.

5. Disagreements can be easier to smooth over.

As opposites, you probably have very different personalities, which means varying ways of handling arguments. Maybe one of you likes to lay it all out on the table in a fiery display of emotions, while the other wants to talk things out in a calm, rational manner.

You can work things out more quickly if you have opposite styles of arguing. That’s because while one of you might blow things out of proportion, the other can maintain their cool and rationalize the situation.

Someone with a short fuse better suits a person who stays calm and collected because one person’s weakness is the other’s strength. Any arguments will turn into a logical discussion since one partner excels at listening, while the other does better with talking through their emotions.
