By letting go of the romantic ideal of merging and becoming “one,” you learn as Rainer Maria Rilke says, to love the distances in a relationship as much as the togetherness.
See your partner for who he or she really is, The romantic tragedy occurs when you view the person you are in love with as a symbol of what they have come to represent, the idea of them.
When you realize that more often than not you don’t really know your partner, you begin to discover who they are and how they change and evolve.
Be willing to learn from each other, The key is to see the other as a mirror and learn from the reflection on how you can be a better person.
When you feel upset, rather than blame your partner and point fingers, remain awake to what has yet to be healed in yourself.
Get comfortable being alone, In order to accept that love can’t rescue you from being alone.

and we often do everything we can to avoid it. The trick is to see that ordinariness can become the real “juice” of intimacy.
The day-to-day loveliness of sharing life with a partner can, and does, become extraordinary.
Expand your heart, One thing that unites us is that we all long to be happy. This happiness usually includes the desire to be close to someone in a loving way.
To create real intimacy, get in touch with the spaciousness of your heart, and bring awareness to what is good within you.
It’s easier to recognize the good in your partner when you’re connected to the good in yourself.
Focus on giving love, Genuine happiness is not about feeling good about ourselves because other people love us.
