Hey,
One of the most important things we covered on Tuesday in my opinion was homeostasis in relationships. It makes so much sense that changing how you see yourself and treat yourself would be difficult in a serious relationship. However, I don’t think this is something that usually crosses people’s minds. If someone in a relationship is trying to change the relationship by changing his/her self image, the other partner may be threatened by this change. I’ve seen this happen before and the stress eventually broke the couple apart. However, I think that it was best for the girl who instigated the change. She now has a better sense of self worth and higher self esteem. I think she is now readier to enter a relationship because she has found (and is happy with) who she is. That aspect is vital.
