"Devon Hase states, 'People are trying desperately to fix, optimize, or escape their way out of relationship difficulty - and suffering more for the effort. Social media has made this worse! We're surrounded by images of perfect partnerships while quietly drowning in our own ordinary struggles.' This highlights the pressure couples feel in the age of social media."
"Nico Hase explains, 'The most useful thing in the book might be the simplest: learning when to stop trying to fix your partner and when real feedback actually helps.' This emphasizes the importance of understanding the dynamics of feedback in relationships."
Devon and Nico Hase combine Buddhist wisdom with psychological practices to address relationship challenges. Their new book emphasizes that difficulties in partnerships are common and not necessarily negative. They argue that social media exacerbates feelings of inadequacy in relationships. The authors suggest that understanding the concept of dukkha, or inevitable stress, can provide a liberating perspective on love. They offer practical advice on when to provide feedback and when to accept partners as they are, promoting healthier interactions.
