Unlike most couples, we've never shared a space for more than a few weeks. People are always shocked when they hear how long we've been together.

Why a 1% Shift Is All It Takes to Improve a Relationship

Empathy flourishes in relationships that feel safe and nonjudgmental. The human brain resists large demands but cooperates readily with small, manageable ones. When the goal is too big, motivation collapses under the weight of expectation. But when the goal is tiny, the nervous system relaxes long enough to try. When a relational goal feels too big or too inauthentic, the nervous system can perceive it as a heavy load and shut down in response.
