The man of the modern age has made himself a subject and placed in the place of "God." - In the plurality of postmoderns he now stands in the dilemma between self-realization at any cost and self-loss! - Compromise: "being yourself in relationship" ... (G. Geshake, Rhine Post, 13.11.1998)
Übersicht mit KI
Being "yourself" in a relationship is a balance of maintaining your individuality, expressing your needs assertively, and practicing healthy compromise where both partners feel respected. It means engaging in mutual understanding, setting personal boundaries, and avoiding excessive self-sacrifice to prevent losing yourself in the relationship.
How to Be Yourself While Compromising
Cultivate self-awareness: to understand your own needs, values, and desires.
Communicate assertively, expressing your perspectives and feelings clearly and respectfully.
Maintain healthy boundaries: to protect your personal space and values from being eroded.
Balance self-care with consideration: for your partner, avoiding self-abandonment.
Engage in activities and hobbies: that are separate from your partner to maintain your identity.
Prioritize mutual respect: over constant agreement; it's okay to have different views.
Recognize the difference: between healthy compromise, which is a mutual effort, and self-betrayal, which is giving up too much of yourself.
Signs You're Losing Yourself
Constantly changing: your preferences or values to please your partner.
Replacing "I" with "we": so much that your individual self feels lost.
Neglecting your own social life, hobbies, or personal growth.
Feeling a sense of sacrifice or resentment: because your needs are consistently unmet.
Real love does not show itself between two persons. - There exists the danger that the one loves himself in the other - but only where 2 as "we" turn to a third person ... (R. St. Viktor, Rhine Post)
Übersicht mit KI
The idea that "real love does not show itself between two persons" is a misconception; love is shown through actions and behavior, making it evident through a person's choices and treatment of another, not solely through their words or the physical presence of both individuals. Lasting love manifests as consistent support, respect, and empathy, demonstrated in daily interactions and the ability to overcome challenges together.
Love in Action, Not Just Words
Demonstrated through deeds:
True love is expressed not just through declarations but through consistent actions that make a person feel safe, valued, and deeply seen.
Daily presence:
It's shown in the everyday ways someone treats you, offers comfort, and listens with genuine understanding.
A verb, not just a feeling:
Love is a dynamic process that requires conscious effort and action to thrive, not just an emotion that happens to one person.
Qualities of Real Love
Respect and support:
It involves unconditional acceptance, support during difficult times, and honesty.
Trust and security:
A loving relationship builds trust, where one person doesn't have to constantly question their worth or if they are valued.
Endurance:
Lasting love can withstand challenges, distance, and differences, persisting through cycles of intimacy and separation.
What Love Is Not
An absence of conflict: While not a source of pain, love is not the absence of challenges; it is the commitment and effort to sustain the relationship through them.
Constant togetherness: True love doesn't necessitate never being apart.
Manipulation: Love is characterized by truth, clarity, and earned safety, not manipulation or conditional affection.
The predominance of technology is at the same time the end of the private sphere, - and its decline fits in the gloomy prophecies of a cultural pessimism - which unites technical progress and social decline (and destruction of the environment etc. - d.48)! ... (J. Schlemmer)
Übersicht mit KI
The statement "The predominance of technology is at the same time the end of the private sphere" suggests that the pervasive influence of technology, particularly digital platforms, erodes the traditional boundaries between public and private life, leading to a significant transformation or "end" of the private sphere as it once existed. This is because technologies such as mobile phones and social media make private information more visible, blur the lines between personal and public interactions, and allow for constant connectivity and algorithmic control.
How Technology Transforms the Private Sphere
Ubiquity and Connectivity:
Mobile technology's constant presence and ability to connect individuals anywhere create a context where private actions are more likely to be exposed to public view.
Erosion of Boundaries:
Digital platforms and networks can blur the distinction between personal life and public communication, making it difficult to maintain a clear separation between the two.
Algorithmic Control:
Technology, particularly through corporate or state control, can lead to comprehensive algorithmic management of public and private spheres, influencing what is seen and how it is interpreted.
New Forms of Public Interaction:
While traditional notions of the private sphere may weaken, technology also creates new autonomous communication networks that can establish new forms of public or "proletarian" spheres, albeit within a transformed landscape.
Transformation, Not Disappearance:
Rather than disappearing entirely, the private sphere is undergoing a complex transformation driven by digital technologies. This includes a re-negotiation and adaptation of the very concepts of public and private by individuals and institutions.
Consequences of this Shift
Politicization of Private Life:
Aspects of private experience can become politicized and subject to public concern and discussion.
New Challenges for Individuals and Institutions:
This transformation requires individuals and social institutions to find new ways to defend, adapt, or challenge the notions of public and private in the digital age.
Need for Regulation:
The shift highlights the need for greater political regulation of technologically advanced means of communication to address its potential "disturbing phenomena".

(G. Arzt)
Übersicht mit KI
Distrust in others and a selfish retreat often stems from past experiences of betrayal, manipulation, or abandonment, leading to a deep-seated fear of being hurt or let down. This distrust results in a self-protective withdrawal from relationships, as individuals distance themselves to avoid potential disappointment or danger. While a retreat can offer temporary relief, it ultimately hinders the formation of meaningful connections and can contribute to feelings of loneliness and isolation.
Causes of Distrust and Retreat
Past Trauma:
Betrayal, abandonment, or dishonesty in previous relationships can trigger a deep-seated fear of experiencing these harmful situations again.
Perceived Selfishness of Others:
A fundamental belief that others are inherently selfish, greedy, and dishonest can lead to cynicism and a reluctance to engage with them.
Self-Protection:
A lack of trust causes individuals to assume the worst about others' intentions, prompting them to distance themselves to protect their interests and avoid disappointment.
Signs and Symptoms
Constant Questioning: Regularly doubting people's motives and intentions.
Anticipating the Worst: A frequent expectation that others will ultimately let them down.
Emotional and Physical Distance: Withdrawing from social interactions to avoid emotional vulnerability and potential hurt.
Consequences
Damaged Relationships:
The inability to trust and the tendency to retreat can destroy meaningful relationships and create a sense of emotional exhaustion.
Increased Cynicism:
A cycle where suspicion and mistrust become self-fulfilling prophecies, breeding further negativity.
Social Isolation:
Retreating from others can lead to loneliness, which is a biologically stressful state that can erode well-being.
Overcoming Distrust and Retreat
Self-Reflection and Self-Care:
Recognizing patterns of distrust and consciously choosing to nurture oneself can be a path to healing.
Setting Healthy Boundaries:
Learning to establish and maintain clear boundaries can protect one's energy and prevent exploitation.
Seeking Professional Support:
Guidance from health experts, such as counselors or mindset coaches, can help individuals address the root causes of distrust and learn more balanced ways to relate to others.
