The Importance of Choosing
In relationships, it is common for partners to find others attractive, which can lead to feelings of jealousy and insecurity. However, the key factor to focus on is who your partner is choosing. Despite the presence of attraction towards others, the crucial aspect is who they ultimately choose to be with. This choice represents the investment, romance, and significance in the relationship. As long as your partner continues to choose you, the attraction towards others becomes inconsequential and should not be a cause for concern.
Different Types of Attraction
Attraction comes in various forms, such as sexual, platonic, and admiration-based attraction. It is important to recognize that attraction exists across different dimensions and is not limited to just the opposite sex. Understanding the existence of different types of attraction helps to put into perspective the significance of who your partner chooses. While feeling mild jealousy is natural, it is essential to prioritize the act of choosing. Only when your partner stops choosing you should you begin to question the relationship itself. Ultimately, being with someone who consistently chooses you is crucial, regardless of the presence of attraction towards others.
