The main problem in relationships – illustrated as a comic

Well, when was the last time you were mad at your darling? And above all: why? Actually it doesn't matter – because this comic lets your anger appear in a different light one way or another …

A favorite person like that can really piss you off! Sometimes he doesn't answer the whole day, sometimes he ignores our advice, then he just thinks about himself and of course leaves his stuff lying around everywhere. Annoying! But what do you not accept when the feeling says that you are the right person, that it could be true love … Also: What can you argue for – and what could be nicer than reconciliation sex?

Anger towards others is often unjustified

Nevertheless: In many situations in which we sit on the palm tree and cook coconut soup out of anger at our partner (or our girlfriend, brother or anyone else), we actually do him an injustice – and the following wants (admittedly, something martial) drawing.

The man lying on top of the cliff holding the woman doesn't see that a nasty snake is biting her wrist. He doesn't know how serious and bad their situation really is. The woman, on the other hand, has no idea that the man is being crushed by a large lump. So she doesn't understand why he lets her down like that and doesn't just pull her up.

Boulder, cliff and snake in real life

Sure, in everyday life we ​​rarely hang down from a cliff and in front of some snake pits, but the message of the drawing applies to practically every situation: We do not know what situation our partner – or, in general, our fellow human beings – are in. We only see the world from our perspective and it is shaped in a certain way due to our worries, fears and pains (aka the snake).

On the other hand, our partner (our fellow human beings) can do their best to be there for us, but it seems like a half-hearted attempt that makes us upset and angry.

The moral of the story

But what can we now learn and take away from this adventurous drawing? Quite simply: Before we get upset the next time, just take a deep breath, meanwhile remembering that we only know OUR perspective and assume that the other person – in case of doubt for the accused – has good intentions! Then it's best to use that magical tool called communication to find out roughly what the situation looks like from each other's perspective. And if we're still angry – let's go crazy!
