“This is not so great advice for couples just getting started. I have been with my partner for over 30 years. We have five kids and have had lots of difficult conversations and issues. I do not think there it is ever a good idea to have any kind of social media or email to which your partner does not have access. I have been a pastor and a therapist and have found that having private social media does not foster trust and intimacy. I have so many issues with this episode. It is the only one I’ve listened to and feel like the advice was not good to build intimacy and trust in relationships. To have intimacy and trust, you have to have hard conversations and it seems like there was a lot of advice to accommodate a partner. I thought is was terrible tadvice to to tell someone who is doing dishes while their partner is watching tv to not be upset. That would only build resentment. That’s just one example of the bad advice given. Most of the advice in this podcast will only build resentment and a pseudo relationship at best. If you want a secure functioning relationship listen to Stan Tatkin and Terry Real whenever they are on a podcast.”
