This brief discussion explains why the ideal relationship is with someone you have no personal interest in.
This is an idea that may require some thought to understand. It's a concept that I came up with, and a psychologist friend of mine confirmed its accuracy.
"The best relationship is with someone with whom you don't have a personal interest."
There is a meaningful explanation for why a relationship can be great if you have no interest in the other person. It goes like this:
When you have no personal interest in someone, then you have no reason to judge that person. That can go a long way to having a happy relationship.
That makes perfect sense when you think about it, but if you have no interest in the person, then where would the relationship be headed?
Due to that inconsistency in logic, I refer to this concept as: "Life's rude awakening."
One may feel good about that kind of relationship because they don't care one way or the other, but are they mistaken about its reality?
There is a bright side. With appreciation for a committed relationship, this can work. People can be devoted to a relationship even when they have no interest in one another, as long as they are interested in building the relationship itself.
That might be hard to understand, and that is why I began this short discussion saying this concept requires some thought.
Both partners can have different perspectives on life yet can be 100% committed to each other. That means you may not see eye to eye on everything in life, but as long as you appreciate each other for what you both are and you relate well with one another, why throw that away?
You have to decide if you want to be alone for the rest of your life or if you want a lasting partnership filled with love that grows with time.
Now that's something to commit to, isn't it?
If you got this far, let me know with a thumbs-up.
