The Unspoken Truth: Why Absolute Honesty Can Harm Your Relationship
Psychologist Urges Caution: Not Everything You Think Should Be Said in Relationships Madrid, Spain – In a recent snippet from "El Podcast de Druni," a renowned psychologist, known as @esmipsicologa, has sparked a conversation about the delicate balance of honesty and empathy in romantic relationships. Her advice, "No digas todo lo que piensas" (Don't say everything you think), challenges the popular notion of absolute sincerity, advocating for mindful communication to preserve relational harmony. The psychologist illustrated her point with a relatable scenario: a couple running late for an event. Instead of a partner snapping, "Hurry up, you're always late!" and thus "burning" the relationship, she suggests a more tempered approach. "You're going to be late anyway," she explained, "but how different it is to say, 'What a bummer!' or 'How sad that because of our trust, I'm starting to see you this way.'" She emphasized that while the couple would still arrive late, the manner of communication profoundly impacts the emotional landscape of the relationship. "If you always say everything you think, you'll give the other person the feeling that everything bothers you, and you'll have the feeling that the other person does everything wrong," she stated, concluding that such a dynamic is "very contra-erotic." The expert's message underscores the importance of choosing one's words carefully, even with those closest to us, to avoid eroding trust and affection. The full discussion is available on "El Podcast de Druni" via Spotify and YouTube, delving deeper into the nuances of healthy relationship dynamics and how to identify toxic patterns.
