A speaker argues that expectations kill passion in relationships. Real fulfillment comes from taking 100% responsibility for lighting up your partner, not waiting for them to meet your ideas. Service and devotion matter more than chasing pleasure, which doesn't last.
Expectations kill passion. The expectations about who we think they should be, how they should respond, what they should do, versus 100% responsibility within myself. That's my job to light you up. And by the way, if it's a really beautiful relationship and you truly mature in a relationship, it goes beyond chemistry. Now what lights you up most is lighting your partner up more than them lighting you up will light you up. The life of service to someone and devotion is the only lasting relationship. The life of pleasure what I'm getting or not getting is why most people are living in pain. Because it's not going to be pleasurable every moment, but it can be meaningful and can be more than pleasurable. It can be fulfilling, it can be magnificent, it can be beyond your wildest dreams, but it's going to require you to expand your model of the world beyond yourself.
