In addition to this seductive quality of television, there is its lack of confrontation and complication. It essentially complements your every mood and gives you whatever you want, whenever you want it. If you would rather do without your partner, it seems safe to say that something is missing in your relationship. We find that one of the first things to disappear in a relationship is time together. Both partners get so busy that they forget each other.
Life today is difficult and demanding.
It takes real effort to stay on your feet and do something different. The TV is very seductive and the relaxation and entertainment it provides can be essential and restorative, but linkage is linkage and our relationships need adequate energetic linkage in order to be healthy and thrive. You might even try for linkage while you re watching TV together. Perhaps you could curl up together in a big comfortable chair or on a couch. The most important challenge is to find time to really be together in energetic linkage, however you do it.
