MANAGING CONFLICT LACK OF PASSION LOSS OF LOVE INFIDELITY THE PRACTICE BIOGRAPHY

Palo Alto Family Therapist

Although we choose our partner hoping to consistently see eye to eye, support each other as best friends, and enjoy a long, secure, loving relationship, when stresses occur, it is difficult to retain our intimate connection. Most couples experience their share of ups and downs. As unnerving as these cycles can be, they are normal.

At the beginning of a relationship, we are excited at the thought of combining our lives. Later on, differences, habits or traits that were once endearing, can become irritants. Since each of us has our own unique opinions, values and personal history, disputes are unavoidable. Conflicts may arise around sex, infidelity, parenting, extended family, career issues, interests or money. More relevant than having differences is how we negotiate them. If we lack understanding, respect and acceptance of each other’s views and values, our differences become problematic and result in a gradual, almost imperceptible, disintegration of communication and caring.
