Episode 2591: Keith Wilson explores the delicate balance between identifying what we want in relationships and the danger of becoming too fixated on specific expressions of love. By sharpening vague dissatisfaction into clear desires, we gain clarity, but rigidly attaching to those desires can distort reality and lead to deeper frustration. Wilson offers a thoughtful metaphor of hunger and craving to reveal how flexibility, not fantasy, is key to lasting satisfaction. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://medium.com/hello-love/sharpening-the-point-until-you-miss-it-1eda87bfe643 Quotes to ponder: "You identify what could make you feel warmer towards your partner and what makes you go cold." "All the things you ask for don’t quite cover the dissatisfaction you feel. They are examples of your dissatisfaction, not the totality of it." "Craving begins as a flight from wanting, but it makes the wanting all the more problematic."
