GITRMM ep 39: What Type of Exclusive Are We?

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

• Find out the two different types of exclusive relationships: monogamous and progressive dating.
• How working with Lisa and Benjamin can help you focus on getting into a progressive relationship and find a partner who is ready to get Emotionally Naked with you.
• What are the consequences of being in a monogamous relationship for someone with an anxious attachment style? 
• How can you tell if the person you're dating is ready for forward movement, or if they’re just making excuses and stringing you (and the relationship) along? 
• Benjamin explains his desire to take things slow when first meeting Lisa, and how that allowed them to co-create a relationship built on trust, friendship, and vulnerability. 
• Invested time and shared experiences do not equal deep emotional vulnerability. 
• In a progressive relationship, both partners make conscious choices to integrate their daily lives and they find time to be together.

Quotes: 

• “Distance can seem like a very viable excuse, but in the end, for two people to bring their lives together, they are going to have to find a way to work with it.” -Lisa 
• “There has to be a willingness on both sides to work together to figure it out.” 

- Lisa

• “Often, people mistake the time invested with deepening emotional vulnerability.” - Benjamin
• “In a monogamous relationship, someone settles for less than what they are looking for. It’s easy to settle into a routine and not have it go anywhere. Not planning for the future, getting vulnerable, or integrating into each other’s life.” 

- Lisa 

• “In an anxious-avoidant dynamic, they think there is a connection when the passion and intensity is really fear and desperation.” - Lisa
