Does the Car Have Gas in it?

from Memoirs of an LDS Servant Teacher · host Maurice Harker

In this part of the conversation, Maurice Harker, Director of Life Changing Services, discusses the feeling of not being able to trust others and believing that one is worthy of being loved. Maurice mentions the tendency for many women to initially have a high level of trust in their partners when entering a relationship, but over time, this trust can diminish due to various factors and societal influences. He highlights societal contradictions and expectations that make it challenging for individuals to navigate relationships. There's an emphasis on the idea that surprises are a natural part of any relationship – some positive and some negative – but societal norms often push individuals to communicate their surprise or dissatisfaction in ways that might not be productive. Maurice also addresses the concept of having unspoken "rule books" for relationships, which can lead to frustration and misunderstandings. The idea of openly sharing these rule books and expectations can be detrimental to the relationship's overall well-being. Maurice further delves into the difficult topic of self-worth and the feeling of being loved. He shares a personal experience about witnessing a situation where children were choosing roller-skating partners, and Maurice's own daughter didn't get chosen. This emotional example serves as a way to empathize with the feelings of inadequacy, not being chosen, and not feeling worthy of love that many individuals might experience. Overall, Maurice aims to create a safe and understanding environment for discussing these challenging feelings and concerns. The conversation touches on societal pressures, self-esteem, and the complexities of human emotions within relationships.
