RELATIONSHIP
J's
relationship had just broken up. Many issues were covered
in this dialogue, including the following:
- Patterns
of feeling unworthy in relationship
- What
does being 'in love' mean?
- What
can I do when I'm in the midst of mental and emotional
turmoil?
- How
do I break that pattern of attracting the 'wrong' people?

This
is a long and somewhat unstructured dialogue that occurred
over a period of months. L. was having mixed feelings about
her relationship with B, which seemed to be giving her more
suffering than joy. Here are some of the issues raised:
- Wanting
my boyfriend to be different
- He
keeps telling me he will change
- I
feel good when I'm on my own, drained when I've been with
him
- I'm
still with him because I'm learning something
- The
process of taking responsibility; do relationships have
to be so difficult?
- I
have so much love to give, but it feels like I'm pouring
it into a black hole
- I'm
slipping back into old patterns again
- When
am I contributing to co-dependent behavior and when am
I just being open and understanding?

CAREER
In this
short interaction, B. touched on many questions many of us
ask: who am I? Do I have to let go of some things in order
to achieve my desires? Can I have it all - my passion (career)
and connections with others? View
