我最近思考了核心关系原则,并将其简化为更简单的真理:不要做混蛋,要善良、慷慨和富有同情心;以及培养情绪韧性。 善良是健康关系的基础,科学研究也支持这一点。Gottman夫妇的研究表明,积极互动与消极互动的比例应该达到5:1甚至20:1。积极的互动就像在情感账户中存钱,而消极的互动则会透支。 刻薄的行为有很多表现形式,例如讽刺、挖苦、指责、抱怨、责备、侮辱等。即使是玩笑,如果以他人为代价,也会被视为消极互动。 当然,也有一些例外情况,例如表达不同意见或提出合理抱怨。但前提是,双方之间建立了安全、尊重的沟通环境,并且已经进行了大量的积极互动。 情绪韧性是应对刻薄行为的关键。它指的是在面对挑战时,能够保持情绪平衡,并迅速恢复的能力。情绪失调会导致“战斗、逃跑或冻结”反应,不利于沟通和解决问题。 如果你是容易在情绪失调时变得刻薄的人,那么你需要学习情绪调节技巧,在行动之前先处理自己的情绪。这包括认识到自己的行为,为自己的行为道歉,并努力改变。 如果你是被刻薄对待的人,你需要学习情绪调节技巧来保护自己,例如设置界限、保持好奇心、与对方沟通等。 最终,你需要根据自己的情况做出选择,决定是否继续维持这段关系。

Whether you're struggling with conflict, disconnection, or just want to take your relationships to the next level - these obvious (but often overlooked) truths will transform how you connect with others.
