“Today, we turn to one person to provide what an entire village once did: a sense of grounding, meaning, and continuity. At the same time, we expect our committed relationships to be romantic as well as emotionally and sexually fulfilling. Is it any wonder that so many relationships crumble under the weight of it all?”

― Esther Perel, Mating in Captivity: Reconciling the Erotic and the Domestic
I have always found Esther Perel a fascinating researcher on love and sexuality. She is full of wonderful quotes and quibbles and has worked really hard to normalize many stigmas in relational dynamics. This video came across my feed and I appreciated how succinctly she spoke to a common language around love (to have) and desire (to want). If you and your partner are looking for couples counseling please check out the rest of my site.
As always, thanks for reading.
