Can we pause and revisit this in a little while?" Cultivate a Culture of Appreciation Example (No): "You finally did something right with the dinner tonight." Example (Yes): "Thank you for making dinner tonight. It tasted wonderful, and I really appreciate the effort you put into it."

This guy's a genius. Nowadays, dating advice is all about being "confident" and "high value" and pulling away and not being too accomodating to avoid appearing "needy" and "desperate", and they're all missing the whole point and picture of being in a relationship, which is what Dr. Gottman is doing a great job of explaining.

These things are related to what he's talking though, women nowadays feel contempt for men who are not higher value then themselves, and even when they are higher value research from all dating apps show that women have a distorted sense of reality and rate 80% of men as "below average", which is a mathematical impossibility.

@cryora

3 жыл бұрын

@@kirito3082 Well you have to think about whether the fact that this test is being done on dating apps affects the results, and I can think of two causes. One being that the sample of men using dating apps don't correlate with the men in real life. The other being that dating apps themselves distort how people appear, since all you see are pictures and profile descriptions in the context a dating app. If dating apps can somehow recreate the experience of meeting someone at, say, a nice bar or lounge, or vacation resort, or wherever, then things would probably be different. There is also this whole "guilty by association" effect, so if a dating app has a lot of fake accounts or accounts where the people using them are being their worst selves (low brow content), then the perception of everyone on that app as a whole goes down. Another argument might be that women are just more fashionable as a whole, as they tend to be the ones who do their hair, nails, take care of their skin, wear makeup, flattering clothing, etc. What's "average" for a woman might be different from the average of the male population. In fact, women might not even be thinking in terms of the average of the male population when then think of "average." They may be think of women and men combined, or they may be thinking of a subset of men who they deem "datable" that might be influenced by Hollywood romance films. So I think what men need to do is to up their fashion and presentation, and not just think "well most of my friends don't have 6-packs and groom their hair or wear fitted clothing, I shouldn't have to either." Because if everyone don't put any effort, what's "average" would actually be really meh for someone who has seen what real effort looks like. And we should all not take dating apps too seriously, because it's too easy for anyone to just make an account, including fakes, and not be real or put any effort or just to troll or redirect people to another site, flooding the pool with low quality user accounts.

Mathematics is also a departure from reality. My physics advisor whose advisor is a Nobel Laureate will tell you that. The math is no good if you don't think about the physics, the reality, that it is trying to describe, and unless you think about the possible biases, including your own, then you are not thinking like a scientist. Trust me, the type of research I do is a lot more rigorous than these subjective studies on dating apps, so the validity of those their conclusions are not exempt from scrutiny.

Most of this is much harder for people who grow up in negative or broken families. They have all the worst habits. If you came from a broken family, take time to work on yourself and become the person that you want to be BEFORE you get into a relationship and get married.

As I observed their dismay in their faces all the while being helpful with each other I took note that ....THAT is a strong couple. This went on for awhile and I obviously did not interrupt however I wish I could have given them a note or something to let them know how cool it was! When misunderstandings refrain from putting the whole relationship on the line it can be a lot more fun !

These things assume both parties in a marriage are in fact on the same value system and on the same wavelength. If after 20 years you figure out your partner is not in tune with you and never will be except occasionally when they realize you are not tolerating the manipulation or the neglect. Smart people can feed off of others who have no idea about covert psychopathy.

I wrote this for myself but if anyone interested: ("The masters" - stay together) ("The disasters" - break up) - The relationship should be: fun, rich in positive things and words, however keep negativity cause you grow and learn from it. but always mostly positive. - The four horsemen of the apocalypse: 1. Criticism: The disasters say in an argument that the partner personality is bad and they make what happend a symptom of the partners personality ("whats wrong with YOU???" ). The masters on the other hand still complain about what is bothering them but they talk about themselves and what they feel and how they would want to be treated and what they need. 2. Defensiveness: The disasters: one way is meeting a complaint with another complaint. The other way is they act like innocent victom, they whine ("I aCtuAlly reaLLy diD caRe aboUt yOur daY 😪☹️😟😥😢😣😖" ) The masters: accept responsibility, even for small things. ("good point", "you right, I actually was stressed out today") 3. Disrespect and Contempt: The disasters: look down on the partner, and you feel: cleaner, smarter... one way of doing that is calling each other names. ("what a jerk! you only talk about yourself! " ) The masters: respect and proud of the people they love, creating a culture of appreciation. Say thank you for very small things they partners are doing ("thanks for making the food" "I enjoyed our conversation " "I watch you playing with the baby last night and it was very beautiful" ). To help with that you could instead of scanning the area for thing to criticize, scan the area for things to praise and appreciate. Also good in child-parent relationships. 4. Stonewalling: emotional escape from conflict. Usually when talking to someone you give signs of listening: facial expressions, noises, head movments. However Stonewalling is when you stand with your arms cross and dont do vocal things and sometimes not looking at your partner. And this is a sign of disaster. In good relationships: -Friendship: intimacy, work on 3 things: 1. love maps - knowing and being interested in your partner (and feeling that the same goes for you), knowing what they like, their values, the people in their life.... you doing that buy asking open ended questions ("how are you feeling about being a nother right now", "how do you like this house? wanna change it? " ). To improve a relationship try changing some statements for questions. 2. Fondness and admiration: again its the culture of appreciation, saying thank you, and I respect you and so on.(It cannot stay in the brain it needs to come out the mouth) 3. Bids, Turning towards: when your partner makes a bid turn towards them and be interested in what they told you. - Repair the coflict: When a conflict ends up bad and unsolved, take a break and come back to it later when you're clam and re-negotiate the conflict. - 69% of coflicts in marriage do not get solved, you just talk about then and learn to live with them and talk about them some more(In a good relationship, that is) - Grid lock problems: Try to find whats hidden underneath the surface, it usually comes from a personal belief in things and values, wich are very very essential to them and to their sense of self and it cannot be compromised (its their personality bones). When you find the dream that hidden, then honore each other dreams. - Gentleness: The 31% of problems that are solvable, the masters "soften the startup", they gently and with respect and appreciation talked about the problem (talking about themselves and what they need). - Accepting influence: saying: "good point ","let me consider this", "tell me more about your opinion" and generally try to honore your wife. (especially needed for men) - Compromis: compromise. - Take a break from a conflict and calm down when feeling physically blood rush. When you have calmed down continue the discussion. - Shared meaning: feel like you building something, and feel like when you are together you have a purpose.

This lecture was so helpful that I listened to it from start to finish. Especially those of us who have been married for decades need to be reminded of the importance of being nice and kind to each other. It's so easy to take each other for granted and be dismissive, inconsiderate, inattentive, uncaring and unkind more often than we'd like. I want to strive to be a master, not a disaster married couple as my husband and I go into our senior years together. I hope it's true that the best is yet to be.

Been married nearly 30 years now. Lots of ups and downs along the way. Still look to stay on till death do us part but you’ll can never be too sure. I don’t believe there’s a success formula for everyone because people and circumstances are different. But we all can appreciate some good thoughts and advices time to time.

I think a lot of this stuff works well with friendships and family relationships too. It’s all about communicating and communicating well with other people

@@peanutgallery5245 Hey! So as it turned out, she's likely diagnosable with narcissistic personality disorder. We moved back to MO near her family, and then she kicked me out of her mom's house once we were back and I had nowhere to live. I then filed for child custody court and have battled her toxicity for over a year of being separated now. I have done a ton of research and am confident that she's diagnosably NPD in the form of a covert narcissist. Gaslighting, manipulative, and extremely controlling. I'm free now, and I'm extremely grateful to have been able to escape this domestic abuse. I was treated terribly while with her.

Wow, this was awesome! I'll be hanging onto this information and revisiting it to help me self-reflect (and adjust) for years! 😁

So I'm currently having a fight with my partner and googled how to save a marriage and got this video. 😂😂 awesome advice. 🤞🏼 fingers crossed

Yesss bill a, agree

When I told my partner we need to work on our conflict resolution skills so conflicts don’t blow out of proportion. He says there shouldn’t be any conflict. As much as I like the sound of what he says, I think fights/arguments are inevitable. Now we are separated and I feel no one wants to work on relationships these days. It’s easier to end things.

I have used this video in the class i teach for batterers intervention. I use it for teaching respect in relationships and non violent communication. Thanks for all you do

The best I have ever come across when it comes to relationship building. Thank you Dr. Gottman. It gave me a lot of insights in my relationship and how I can improve it.

Absolutely loved this! You have transformed the way I see my partner and myself and to put meaning behind actions. Thank you soooo much for doing your work and sharing it.

What is your marital status

My husband's blood pressure increased and it made it more difficult for him to cope. When he dealt with the blood pressure, with prescribed medication, he was able to cope again. So his blood pressure, which increased due to age, influenced his behavior. I wonder how often we take into account how physical health affects the health of a relationship. Some difficulties could be influenced positively by addressing medical needs.

Thank you Dr Gottman. I found this informative and useful.

This is by far the best video on the subject I've ever watched. Dr. Gottman's books are also well worth a read (or two). Talk about logical and attainable goals couples can strive for to improve connection, knowledge about one another, respect, admiration, intimacy and romance. The Holy Grail of videos! Thank you so much for making this video available!

Jason Wilson it’s not about being right all the time. In fact I can admit I messed up and I was wrong but my partner has to be right all the time and hates being wrong or hates when I’m right. That’s another defect in itself. He doesn’t want to encourage me to be right? No not if it demeans him. But he’s been wrong and I proved it and he just acts like a baby. Respect. I’m not on his level-he’s smarter then me and has more experience etc. yes dear is sweet-you are always right dear is a fabrication. Let’s be honest. Respect honesty What else? Let’s make a list... women just want to see that men are trying as hard as we are and maybe either party actually isn’t then that’s the issue let’s discuss it.

Lies and Infidelity is a very serious issue to deal with and it’s a major threat to most marriages and relationships.Scars left behind from a narcissist husband is hard to erase from the mind. I was reluctant at first about finding the truth about my cheating husband but I’m glad I finally took the courage for it .I got help from Cyber Hack Solutions as he helped clone my cheating husband’s phone and I got access to all his phone call logs, emails, text messages both deleted texts and also social media chats; whatsApp , Facebook, Instagram without having access to his phone because he is mostly out of town due to the nature of his work and I was able to track his location too, all I provided was his phone number to this wonderful hacker. This was very revealing for me as he’s a serial cheater until I got into his phone and ended things.I’m glad to uncover his, lies, secrets and Infidelity.

The single most important thing to consider about what is presented here is the mental/emotional health of the people involved. Only healthy individuals are cabable of a healthy relationship. Those with mental/emotional health issues are only going to infect their relationships and ultimately bring them to failure . BOTTOM LINE Get some basic understanding of mental/emotional health. Get yourself healthy FIRST, then you can recognize the health status of the person you are interested in. Otherwise failure is guaranteed.

This made me feel so sad 😞 I don't know what I'm lacking, I've expressed explicitly my needs, emotionally and needing to feel secure and I feel worse than ever, after 2 years of therapy. I thought I meant more than this.

I think these ideas are essential in all human interactions, although taking responsibility for giving, connecting, and appreciating someone comes more easily with special people!

Very great information. These are things you can pinpoint even on a first date or first few dates if it’s going to work out or not. Have you thought about doing a TED talk on this subject? It gives you great insight on relationships. We all wrap our heads around relationship attachments and personalities not so much in the coping of problem solving especially during conflict. The fact that if someone is genuinely interested in you or engaging is something you can learn early on in a relationship. Thank you 🙏🏽

I have been following Gottman for years and I am so happy he has expanded in this talk on his relationship research. In the past I have been appreciative about the four horsemen, but I am so excited he is sharing more info on what couples can do to become masters. I have also always found the "bidding" info very helpful. I was a lab assistant for Levinson at Berkeley years ago with his emotion research so I can honestly say their research is invaluable.

It’s really not so complicated, people. Honor and respect your partner. Help them to work toward their dreams and goals. Your job is to know, accept, and cherish them. Earn their trust, every day. If you can’t do these things, have the kindness and good sense to get out of their way. In addition to Gottman’s books, I recommend Five Languages of Love (Gary Chapman) and Hold Me Tight (Sue Johnson).

Not always possible to do if you don't have a partner doing the same for you. You know the saying 'it takes 2 to tango'. I held out for 30 years (really the second half was the holding out part), i am a stickler and tried all that i could, but when you see that your spouse is obstinate and refuses to get help (because according to him it is all your fault and if only you could be fixed etc etc), and has damaged your children terribly, there comes the time when you just have to get out and leave. I am not sorry I left; I found a true partner just 2 years after, and he is also re-married now. My new husband is the kind that Dr Gottman describes in his books, so now I experience true love.
