The Key To Relationships
51 views
Sometimes the real test of a relationship isn’t in the big gestures—but in how we respond when something makes no sense to us. “Will you do it anyway?” That moment reveals whether we’re truly in a relationship... or just in it for ourselves. Love shows up not only when we understand, but when we choose to care—even when we don’t.

when she says, "Could you do X?" And I
say, "I don't know understand what
you're talking about. I don't know why I
have to do that. I don't know why I have
to do it now. I don't know why we need
to do it at all. It doesn't make any
sense to me. It doesn't benefit me. I
don't believe it benefits the family. It
doesn't make any sense whatsoever." She
says, "Okay, that's fine. Nice. Will you
do it anyway?"
The entire relationship,
the entire relationship is subsumed into
how we answer and respond in those
moments. Because if we only participate,
if we only accept, if we only take
action and do when it makes sense, when
we see the benefit for us, then we're
not really invested in a relationship
with the other. We only care about
oursel. But when we're willing to do it
even when it makes no sense to us. When
we're willing to do it even when we
don't see how it benefits us. When we're
willing to do it because the other party
says, "Just do it because I asked," then
it in fact reflects on all the other
things that we do that they're not only
because we see the benefit. That the
whole relationship is informed and
animated by a devotion, by a loyalty, by
a commitment to want to make the other
party happy.
