Two for two
Differences make partnerships exciting and complicated in equal measure. We not only differ physically, we perceive things differently, we often have different demands and expectations of relationships and life – we are shaped by traditions and social role models.
Then there are the general differences between people: Some swing more with their feelings, while others base their decisions more on external facts. Some are more closed, others are more open. There are countless such polarities and none of them is better or worse.
No translator, no dictionary and no instruction manual will help. We are man and woman.
And in most cases, a woman will understand a woman better than her partner and a man will often find clearer words for another man’s concerns than his partner.
With our “Two to Two” offer, we want to close the gap in perception and communication between couples.
Lost in Translation
We also talked past each other for many years, got involved in arguments and had very different dreams and hopes. We thought we shared them and later had to painfully realize that, despite all our efforts, we hadn’t really shown each other. We separated, each went our own way and yet we never lost sight of each other. It took a few years before we could really “see” each other, talk about our hurts, taboos and longings and look at each other with compassion. In this new encounter, we feel a deep connection, borne by goodwill, truthfulness and freedom.
The gift of partnership
If you feel like you’re alone now, surrounded by all these seemingly happy couples, rest assured: The ups and downs of every relationship are very similar at their core and every relationship knows difficult times. We know and live what we are talking about.
But what is much more important than the ups and downs of your love is how you deal with it. You can grow and develop together, or you can resign yourselves to the hamster wheel of everyday routine for the rest of your lives.
Your partnership is a gift and an opportunity for your personal growth – especially in times when dark clouds obscure your love.
Whatever you do, you will have good reasons for your path.
What could happen next
The fact that you have come to our website shows that a little flame is burning inside you. That you can remember your love and don’t want to give up yet.
It is a sign of your will and courage to see the current difficulties in your partnership as a challenge and not as a problem.
From our experience with over 7000 couples in the last 16 years, we can say that it makes sense to seek support before love disappears under a blanket of resignation and bitterness.
