Performer & Yes-But

People spend hours on the internet looking for answers to physical symptoms that they have observed amongst themselves. They know that something is wrong (maybe) but are frustrated in not knowing what it is and how to fix it.

The same is true with relationships. Sadly, too often people don’t even think that there is an answer out there. However, there are common problems couples face that are able to be addressed.

Couples fall into behavioral patterns in an attempt to get their needs met without being open, honest, and vulnerable.

This week we are going to look at a situation called “Performer – Yes But” which is a bit of a struggle where one person suggests things and the other almost agrees but then shoots them down.

Is this you? Does this sound familiar? We’ll be looking into that behavioral game tonight.
