Love and Relationships...continued
Making the Most of Friendships and Loving Relationships
Experiencing love and connection are the most important desires and deep-seated needs we have. They underpin most of our decisions, actions and reactions towards the people in our lives. We seek love and a sense of belonging through our loving relationships, close friendships and companionships.
Our most Enriching Experiences
When things go well, having open, trusting and healthy relationships can provide some of our most enriching experiences. Yet, when things don’t go the way we want, it can affect us more profoundly than any other aspect of our life.
Sometimes, we may want to learn how to build on what we already have. Other times we may want to seek guidance in challenging times.
