I don't think so. I think that people want to believe it, justify their unhappiness with their partner, but it mostly comes down to being able to learn, to make compromises and to hold yourself to the same standard (if not higher) than you hold your partner to. Nobody is perfect and people who say their partners are are really sugarcoating it. Being in a relationship can be really difficult and frustrating, but also very rewarding and humbling, because what's better thank being with someone that you understand and he or she understands you? Someone that helps you better yourself? Sometimes it's not even about that, it's just about that calming presence. But none of that comes naturally, none if it just happens like that. It takes work and dedication.

Glad you enjoyed this image. It was one of the first photographs that really inspired me to pursue a deeper understanding of the medium

Werner died really young in a car accident, he was only 38 and one of the founding members of the monumental institutional that is the Magnum agency.

Guess he was looking for something really specific and stumbled upon something really gorgeous.

Yeah, I do that too, but 50% of people don't reply to my comments. Maybe I don't bring anything valuable to the conversation. Thought it was a Reddit problem, but maybe it's a me problem? Haha!

Those are some really interesting points, thanks for your input.

That last bit sounds detrimental to you brains, not a very healthy practice, but I also sometimes catch myself slipping up.

Oh yeah, I remember this one! I remember it being pretty funny, but that must have been 22 years ago, wow.

Exactly. Liu Cixin's trilogy Remembrance of Earth's Past has some great writing on different technological levels between alien species and how one could influence a lower tiered civilization by using physics.

It's... Okay. That's the best way I can sum it up, but maybe I'm not the target audience, as I read the books, gave them 3/5 rating and forgot everything about them.
