Are They Too Busy for Your Relationship? — Alyson and Tripp Lanier
Do you care more about the relationship than your partner does?
Does it seem like something else is getting their attention?
And are your efforts to create time together actually pushing them away?
Today Alyson and I talk about what it means when one partner is always busy or distracted. We explore why pushing for more connection can actually drive them away and why choosing to be busy may sometimes mean they’re just not that into you.
In this conversation:
- If you don’t do something then you won’t be together
- Being the only one who seems to care
- So many other things dominating their time
- Why some people like more autonomy and flexibility
- What are the priorities?
Plus:
- Are you pushing them away?
- Are you chasing your partner or are they chasing you?
- What if you’re a drag to hang out with?
- What if you don’t know how to hang out together?
- Attachment theory: distancer and pursuer
