After years of resistance, I’m drawn to enter the world of social media to participate in the ongoing and crucial discussion of how we love. My observations of romantic relationships both within and outside of my psychotherapy office have lead me to an understanding that the basic emotional and physical connection we seek from another is really quite simple. But what is not as simple is the matter of what we do with it once we find it. Do we pursue legal marriage and all that goes with it? Will our relationship be monogamous or will it be an open or polyamorous relationship? Is a relationship, with all its responsibilities and complexities, what we really want? Are we willing and able to make the effort needed to establish and maintain a healthy, satisfying connection?
This blog will explore these and other challenging questions facing those of us who are brave enough to embark on the romantic journey. In the end, you will see that I believe in love and the dream of happily ever after. I believe that if you want it, you can have it. And I believe that love is for everyone.
Welcome to my blog.
