The Misconception of LOVE and Silence in RELATIONSHIPS, according to Jay Shetty 🥰❤️

To help people understand, I used to believe that if you didn't speak to me for two days, it meant you didn't love me. But that wasn't true. You just needed time to process and think about things. And just because I wanted to discuss it immediately doesn't mean I care more. It's a common misconception we have in relationships, thinking that our actions are a reflection of how much we care, or how little the other person does.

My husband does this and he has told me that he thinks he loves me more because I shutdown and need time to think. He's of the mind that you need to settle the problem at the moment and I disagree because in the moment of an argument I can't think clearly at all and I need to be able to gather my thoughts so I can express myself correctly. Sometimes settling in the argument can lead to you saying things that you don't mean because you are angry. I prefer for cooler heads to resolve issues.

also true...we need time to process & respond carefully. So don't ignore an issue but give it some time to get back to it. Know if the silence isn't going go too long silently.

If everyone would be willing to learn how they and their partners function, it would make relationships much healthier and more beautiful

There is a difference between not talking about a certain issue, to take time to be able to really think it through and not talking to the other person at all.
Not talking to the other person at all shows that it is ok for you to let the other person suffer from anxiousness and uncertainty about what is going on while you take your time. So yes, it means that you care A LOT less about the other person's feelings than you care for yourself. Maybe not in general but certainly in this situation. And the word for that is selfishness.

The fact that Jay and radhi are my favorite people on social media is just not ordinary when I listen to you too I see my flaws and strength and more importantly I see more practical ways to work on myself I love you two alot.
All I pray 🙏 for is that you two keep breaking limits and that I get the strength to be more kind more calm and become a much better person for myself and everyone around me.

Sometimes people use this as a stalling technique and they never come back to it or they come back to you were such well thought out anger that it’s not helpful to hit the pause button

Everyone is always in their heads!!!! I need my time!!!! Alone!

[kareen]

as long as you say I need time to process, otherwise it would become the silent treatment

[sanchitasingh]

I just ended up proposing my very good friend and he rejected me but now he is not talking to me
I so badly wanted to talk to him and clear everything but now I think I will just let him be on his own and listen to this advice
