Choose love over pride from "summary" of Relationship Goals by Michael Todd
When it comes to relationships, one of the most important things to remember is to choose love over pride. Pride can be a major obstacle in any relationship, as it often leads to conflict, misunderstandings, and hurt feelings. When we let our pride get in the way, we are more focused on being right than on resolving the issue at hand. Choosing love over pride means putting your partner's needs and feelings above your own ego. It means being willing to admit when you are wrong, apologize when necessary, and forgive when you have been hurt. Love requires us to be humble, to set aside our pride, and to prioritize the well-being of our partner. Pride can create a barrier between you and your partner, preventing true intimacy and connection from forming. It can lead to a cycle of arguments and resentment that can ultimately destroy the relationship. When we choose love over pride, we are able to break down those barriers and build a stronger, more trusting bond with our partner. It's important to remember that love is a choice that we make every day. It requires effort, sacrifice, and a willingness to put the needs of our partner before our own. When we let pride get in the way, we are not acting out of love, but out of selfishness. By choosing love over pride, we are setting a foundation for a healthy and fulfilling relationship. We are showing our partner that we value and respect them, that we are willing to work through challenges together, and that we are committed to building a strong and lasting connection. Love is a powerful force that has the ability to overcome any obstacle, including pride. So, the next time you find yourself in a disagreement with your partner, remember to choose love.
