Beschreibung

Relationships between couples is a subject much discussed. When talking about this, I have always instinctively enjoyed finding elements useful to understanding and explaining the reasons for potential difficulties or successes.Over time, I have developed a clear and simple model, based on four principles.Every time I happened to discuss loving relationships with people who had problems, I was able to get to the heart of the matter after asking just four simple - almost obvious - questions.Yet all those I spoke to benefitted from my help and were very surprised that my conclusions were so accurate.I realized that this simple model helped to clarify relationship dynamics.That is why I thought it would be useful to share it with others.Therefore, I perfected my analysis expanding the model's contents and robustness.This gave rise first to lessons and now this book. In the first part having described the basic concepts, I explain the principles that make up the model and the types of relationships that arise, based on how these principles are lived.In the second part, you will find the rules of the general model: this will help you to gain a succinct understanding of relationship dynamics which allow one to live a relationship in a state of awareness.In the final part, case studies are presented to help you understand how the model can be adapted to everyday problems.I am immensely grateful for this opportunity and to all those who have supported me.

Open up to the impossible!

So, simply in me,

The flow that is you,

Of “another” that is me,

Of you that is us,

There as here, I expand beyond limits ...

And I am here where you are,

Inside me ...

I dream different lives,

I feel lives close and far away

And then I go further,

Much further,

There where we already are,

And even more ... rising and falling.

(Roberto Donati from “Suoni dal Cuore”)

Writing thank you notes after finishing my first book is like briefly reliving these last months: the images of the people that have been close to me, the emotions I’ve felt, the doubts, the fears. I feel an immense gratitude for the opportunity that I have had.

I thank Daniela Ripamonti, for having always supported the idea of writing this book and the inherent learning project. Francesco Donati, for taking care of the graphics. Fiorenza Auriemma for improving the format of the original Italian text.

I thank you, who are reading this right now.

Thank you and enjoy the journey!

Introduction

I have always instinctively liked talking about relationships between couples, trying to find those elements useful for understanding and explaining the reasons for difficulties or successes.

Over time, I developed a very simple mental model based on four principles. Every time I happened to speak about love relationships with those who had problems, I only needed four questions to identify where the principal problems lay. Simple, almost obvious things. However all those I spoke to benefitted and were surprised by the accuracy of my observations. I thus understood that this simple model helped to clarify the relationship dynamics. This is why I thought it could be useful to share it with others. I therefore further developed my analysis, giving more shape and substance to my model.
