Relationship Advice For Dealing With Creative Partners
Do you love someone who is highly creative? Researchers have found that the brains of creative people are different from the brains of others so relationships can be even more of a challenge for them.
However, you can have a healthy and happy relationship with a creative partner.
Try these strategies to enhance your relationship:
1. Creative people can live in their own world. Does it feel as if your partner is on another planet or in a different world?
It’s important to recognize they’re not doing this to hurt you. Creativity can captivate a person and make everything around them melt away into the background.
2. Creative people need space. They need room and time to make their drawings, books and other ideas come to life.
Your relationship will be stronger if you give them space and understand why they need it.
3. Creative people can feel emotions on a deep level. Does your partner fall into this category? Creativity is often tied to emotions and creative people are often sensitive.
Your relationship will depend on your understanding of their emotions. Do they cry easily and find heartache too much to handle? Do they need more support from you?
