Exploring the concept of triangles in relationships and how they can create both stability and tension, this chapter discusses the impact of triangles on conflict, emotional withdrawal, and unrealistic expectations.
When we are uncomfortable with another, we often avoid dealing directly with that relationship by triangling a third person or issue. Understanding how triangles work and how to deal with them is essential to healthy functioning.
This is the audio of Chapter 4 on Triangles from my book, If You Met My Family, You'd Understand: A Family Systems Primer. You can find all 10 chapters of the book in Episodes 56-65 of this Podcast.
