The most important thing you can do to make a relationship work | 7 Principles | Dr. John Gottman

I hate taking ownership when I honestly was NOT half of the problem!

Homosexuality is a practice (evil practice), not an identity. WHY DO YOU CONSIDER GOOD AND EVIL AS THE SAME??? THAT IS SATANISM.

Does it not take two people to WANT to make a relationship work? In my experience one person cannot do it alone.

Didn't work for me. I admitted to my husband the problems that I caused that led to the decline of our marriage, I apologized for them and he cheated on me two hours later. Again.

This is the most true thing about what a man wants. When a girl shares the fault

I bought 2 books, Eight Dates and The Seven Principals To Making A Marriage. These books have changed the way I think and feel about relationships, it has shown me the mistakes I have been making and how to correct them, so that I can have a happy healthy relationship. These books will change your life.

I'd strongly recommend you get rid of the "men" and "women" polarization. That itself causes division.

Is he not presuming that both partners are emotionally healthy, rational, reasonable people?

Yes, accountability!

You have made a huge impact to the lives of many. I salute you sir

Even if its not true. One person CAN screw things up all themselves just by being a jurk having a bad yelling attitude every time they interact w the spouce Ive seen it first hand.Takes 2 is a stupid expression unless you mean it takes two not 1 person to put effort and positive energy into a relationship.

Wow thank you Dr. Gottman. This is very helpful!

For men: "Accepting influence from your wife". For woman: "Admitting when you're wrong." I don't know about the first....maybe I haven't done enough of that yet. Bad on me. I can say for CERTAIN the second one is true.

We must take personal responsibility. We can't change the circumstances but we can change ourselves.

Thank you for sharing this helpful video. As a couples counselor, I agree that you have to accept influence in a relationship in order to make a relationship work . I would love to have Dr. John Gottman on my radio show, Relationship Lovecast, to discuss how his techniques have helped millions reach their true potential in their relationship.

No Research or Data is required to come to a solution.
The terms in the talk -- themselves are relationship, make it work, faults, give & take.  You can find whole lot of these words from the business and maktg. guys.
The missing term was "Inflated Egos".
The solution is JUST LOVE.
Real Love is more than physical! And all realtionships begin with only that physical inlcudes body, money, material comforts, expectations!!!
