A high-quality relationship can never be a one-way street, so everyone has to give and receive in a good relationship. Yet are you able to give and receive at the same time?
- You can never give and receive at the same time.
In international dating, you are either putting your desires forward or aside, but you can never do both of them at the same time in a romantic relationship.
The individual who receives probably feels quite satisfied in a sustainable relationship, which is very obvious. However, in truth, in a great relationship, the individual who gives feels satisfied, too, as wanting to be loved is human nature, and wanting to love someone is human nature as well. Therefore, while giving a partner amazing value, the giver also feels satisfied in a happy relationship. 😊
- The most common confusion about giving and receiving:
When a couple leaves the divorce court, both of them say, “I have given you all.”
Unfortunately, quite often people say they are giving, but as a matter of fact, they are simply giving what they want to give rather than what their spouse wants to receive (which can be totally different).
Do you completely understand your girlfriend?
Are you really aware of your girlfriend’s needs?
What does your girlfriend truly want to receive?
If you give your girlfriend many gifts but she secretly wants to receive the quality time, maybe your girlfriend won’t be genuinely satisfied. Indeed, gifts probably make you very happy, but what makes your girlfriend extremely happy?
You are a generous giver – this is obviously admirable. Now please remember that what you give must be the same as what your girlfriend authentically would like to receive. Thus, it’s paramount to have candid conversations with your girlfriend. 😉
- How to be a phenomenal receiver:
If you are a very lucky guy who receives high value from your girlfriend, never take this for granted!
The worst receiver even exploits his girlfriend whilst having unpleasant thoughts like “If I can get this from her, what else can I get from her?” & “This relationship is so nice and easy, so I don’t need to impress her anymore.”
Frankly, the Law of Reciprocity is true: You will merely get what you give in love. Don’t insult or underestimate the giver’s intelligence.
A good receiver fully appreciates the giver, carefully enjoys what the giver has offered them, and is always willing to reciprocate. That’s precisely how a virtuous circle is built in international dating.
