SIGNS YOU’RE MISTAKING COMPATIBILITY FOR LOVE

Compatibility and being in love are not the same thing. The same as love and lust are not the same thing.  Although an element of compatibility in a romantic relationship certainly helps the relationship to flourish.

One of the main signs that you might be mistaking compatibility for love is if you no longer want to or are interested in having a physical relationship with your partner. You may avoid situations that would likely lead to sex.

All relationships take work and all couples are different. How you manage your differences is the key to success. If you are a compatible couple you will both equally want the relationship to work. Problems arise when one partner no longer feels that way.

I am deeply convinced that each patient needs a unique, individual approach. Therefore, I use different psychotherapy methods in my work. During my studies, I discovered an in-depth interest in people as a whole and the belief in the inseparability of mind and body, and the importance of emotional health in physical health. In my spare time, I enjoy reading (a big fan of thrillers) and going on hikes.
