➤➤Transcript (Partial):
How can you tell if the person you're in a romantic relationship with is the right person to spend the rest of your life with?
Uh, you can't. You actually decide that, rather than discovering it. I might suggest what you might look for on the way to making that decision, all things considered, a certain amount of similarity on the personality dimensions between the two of you is probably to be recommended.
If you differ tremendously in trait conscientiousness, one of you is gonna find the other unbearably rigid, orderly and workaholic oriented. And that person is going to find you dissolute and undisciplined. And those are temperamental differences. And if the gap is large, it's hard to bridge it. Agreeableness, it's the same thing. The warmer person will find the colder, harsher person cruel and unkind, and the cruel and unkind person will find the more agreeable person soft, a pushover and contemptibly unable to stand up for themselves. The extrovert will want to be out partying all the time and the introvert will have had his or her fill of that very rapidly. So you want some temperamental similarity across the major personality dimensions, with the possible exception of trait neuroticism, which is the generalized proclivity to experience negative emotion. I would suggest that a person high in neuroticism seek out someone low or very low, because first of all, neuroticism is one of the best predictors of unhappiness in a relationship.
And so, if you're both high in neuroticism, you're very likely to be unhappy in the relationship and it's highly probable that the person who's higher in neuroticism needs the stabilizing influence of someone who's lower. Then I would say, well-this is based on my clinical observations as well as the experiences of my life. I think it's necessary, or at least highly desirable, that you find the person that you're with sexually attractive, and that's somewhat ineffable. You can be confronted with two people who are, by "objective standards," equally attractive or perhaps equally unattractive, and find yourself very physically attracted to one of them, while the other one will leave you cold, and that's a deep mystery. And I've seen couples try to get along as friends, try to bridge that romantic gap by will, and I haven't really seen it be successful. So I think you need that spark that ignites sexual passion.
Then you have to ask yourself if you can trust the person, if there are activities that you can share with them that would make up a life-if you're oriented in approximately the same direction with regard to your goals, especially important goals, career and children being foremost among them-if you think you could come to some agreement about how the economic resources could be distributed, or at least how that might be negotiated-if you can negotiate with the other person, then again, if you can trust them. And I would say of all those, trust is the most crucial component, maybe followed by the ability to negotiate. The right person is someone you can negotiate with because there's gonna be differences between you and them. There's gonna be differences in your approach. There should be-hopefully there'll be-because that means that the two of you are bringing different skill sets to bear on the problem. That's-means that you have a more diverse range of potential responses, which can be good, but also that there's gonna be conflict. The issue then becomes: can you negotiate through the conflicts and will the other person stick to their negotiated solution?...

    The 3 cornerstone to a healthy relationship by Jordan Peterson: 1. You must be attracted to the person. 2. You must have reasonable measure of trust for that person. 3. You must be willing to negotiate through your differences continually. Our own: 4. You must have a measure of respect for the person you in a relationship with. 5. Your happiness is not up to them and there happiness is not up to you. Happiness is a conscious and personal choice. Good luck in your relationship.

    You got me out of depression, I would listen to these videos constantly couple years ago. Now I keep checking if you uploaded anything new. I don't really listen or watch a lot anymore, but this definitely helped, I actually wrote phrases on my bedroom walls that I got from these videos. Thanks for your support and I hope you are doing well. To give a little more detail before I go: I was suicidal, lost my girl, my job, my career, my friends, my place and had to go back to my parents house at 27. I'm 30 now with a really nice job and recieving more offers, studying programming, can save money every month, I'm on the carnivore diet, lost 16 pounds in 14 days, no acne anymore, not body pain anymore, lean and healthy again, got my friends back and I've been dating a girl for the past 6 months. :) By the way, depression is gone.

    Even though I enjoy like 90% of Dr Petersons work, I disagree with him on the allegation that you should look for someone who has similar personality traits. At least I would say, that it is absolutely correct. I think you need a person that imbalances your weaknesses whereas you have to imbalance your partner's weaknesses in a relationship, so you are complementary to each other and create a whole together. I think there can't be common developement in a marriage if your partner can't show you things you do not know yet.

    Fair, I do think the part where he’s like if you’re a person with a high level of neuroticism than you should seek someone with a low level, is questionable. And I was in my car listening to it, saying NOOOO, don’t do that to them, take the hit or fix it- don’t drag someone else down with your constant desire to see negativity and force them to constantly listen to you venting and complaining. That’s exhausting, unfair, and enough to put someone else, who’s generally at peace, into a depression or 24/7 high stress environment depending on how neurotic the other person is.

    Phillip Brown, collaboration and delegation go hand and hand. This Video assumes there are only two people in this relationship. This is the type of relationship I prefer. The person delegating will need to collaborate on occasions to become keenly aware of the strengths and weaknesses of the other person. Only delegating yields the "you always", and the "you never" phraseology, and is clearly not informed. In your relationship you will encounter an issue that is bigger than the both of you. In that moment, you will need someone that is willing to negotiate for a equitable solution. Negotiation in good faith requires both of you to leave your egos at the door. If egos are abandon at the door, you will discover common ground.

    its funny i found watching this. im a gamer who has a significant other of 17 years (i live with him full time). when im playing games mostly MMO's (right now FFXIV) i will find one gamer i can hang out with do content with and then spend "personal" time with (chatting, ERPing etc). i have done this with 3 men so far. but recently i have found this one gentleman (hes a real life BDSM dominant) that tickles all he parts of me to the point i would love to have him as another real life partner (not just an "in game" one). i started to talk/ERP with him and i wasnt remotely attracted to his toon/character/in game avatar (whatever you want to call it). he was a blonde bombshell that was a pure himbo, as the more i spoke to him and got to know him the more i wanted to be close to him in a relationship way. and now i cant see my life with out him. ive had these type of attractions to ppl before but as long as i never met them my "in real life" partner was fine with it.
