Listen "Breaking the Ancient Loop: How to End the Control vs. Abandonment Fight with Vulnerability and Diplomatic Skills"
Episode Synopsis
Analyzes the recurring arguments that plague relationships worldwide, highlighting a typical pattern where one partner feels neglected or abandoned while the other feels pressured or controlled. Using a sample exchange between two partners, A and B, it shows how these disputes quickly spiral into despair and mutual blame. Rather than viewing each other as hostile, the text urges couples to first recognize that their partner is usually well-intentioned and invested in the relationship. From there, progress depends on stopping reactive attacks and instead openly expressing the underlying fears and wounds—often rooted in childhood experiences—that fuel the conflict. By acknowledging each other’s inner “child” and practicing reassurance, diplomacy, and honest vulnerability, partners can develop the practical skills that sustain love, reframing it less as a pure feeling and more as a set of learnable abilities.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/life_notesProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
