Create a “we” that can house two “I’s”.

The foundation for a thriving, growing, mutually-supportive relationship is
to be separate and connected. In co-dependent relationships, each person
sacrifices part of him or her self, compromising the relationship as a whole.
When you are separate and connected, each individual “I” contributes to the
creation of a “we” that is stronger than the sum of its parts.
The differences between you and your partner are not negatives. You don’t
need to be with someone who shares all of your interests and views. We may
sometimes fear that these differences are incompatibilities, but in fact,
they’re often what keeps a relationship exciting and full of
good fire.
