Relationship Advice Tips from Dr. Jeanette Raymond, Ph.D.
Which of these options represents your view of commitment?
A permanent jail where you give someone someone else authority over you in order to make sure you get loved
OR
Making an agreement to join forces and walk together along a chosen path, giving and receiving love while maintaining your autonomy.
If your heart sank when you chose the first option then you must live with worry and fear of committing and resent having to do it in order to get loved. You may lose a lot of opportunities for good relationships when you live with this insecurity, as well as consider psychotherapy to help.
You don’t have to fear that type of commitment any longer.
It’s all about your perception of commitment – this video shows you how to change it to one where you maintain authority over yourself while allowing yourself to step in and out of another person’s life and vice versa.
