We all know that relationships can lose their initial spark as the lustre of new love fades. But what lies beyond the excitement? Can we find a richer, more nuanced form of connection? In this episode about dealing with relationship boredom, we'll analyze the intricacies of long-term commitment and how the initial rush of passion can transform into a comforting sense of home and security. We'll hear from two of our clients as they navigate their own challenges, from anxiety over labeling a relationship to knowing when it's time to seek variety or move on to new horizons. And I'll share some of my personal journey from prioritizing sexual conquests to recognizing the value in deeper, more intellectual connections with partners. We'll also explore how societal norms and mental health intertwine with our concepts of monogamy and commitment. So, whether you find yourself pressured to define a relationship, wondering how to maintain attraction over time, or simply searching for ways to reinvigorate your partnership, this episode is tailored for you.
