Love Decoded: How Our Minds Shape Relationships

If I'm attracted to men, I might seek out a man who is distant and absent and try to garner his attention and affection in the way that I was unsuccessfully or unsuccessful in garnering from my own father.
Why do we fall for certain people? In this episode of 'Power of the Mind', Gregory Struve and Elicia Morigeau tackle the enigma of love. They break down how our brains influence who we choose as partners, diving into biological and evolutionary theories. Gregory shares a compelling insight: our parental relationships often shape our romantic choices.
For instance, if someone grew up with a distant father, they might find themselves drawn to emotionally unavailable partners, trying to win the affection they missed out on as a child. The episode doesn't stop there. It also touches on the honeymoon phase, common relationship patterns, and even sex and love addiction. Plus, they highlight the value of premarital counseling and effective communication in building successful relationships.
Whether you're in a relationship or searching for one, this episode offers eye-opening perspectives on how our minds navigate the world of love.
