My ideas about love have evolved over the last three decades and through my clinical and life experience, I have gotten to the point where I think I know something worth sharing.
Part of what I know I have learned from seeing what happens when love takes an unfortunate or nasty turn, as it often does. I have spent a good portion of my clinical career helping people get divorced. I mediate marital disputes and help people some of whom once loved and now seriously dislike (or worse, hate) one another. Through this work I have learned a lot about what people forget to keep doing after they fall in love; and a lot of my philosophy has been informed by that work. I wonder how people’s quality of life and love might have been different if people thought more about love and learned how to maintain it. Staying in love is a process where a person actively challenges the forces that cause us to fall out of love. We are going to talk about that a lot.
I am ready to start.
