Interesting to hear how this is now impacting his relationship… and his decision to turn down the lights. Hmmm, I do wonder how this is going to work for him, if it’s possible to put a dimmer switch on an 8000 watt bulb!

“Turn down the lights” lol. Yes, I’d really like the book to delve more deeply into how individual transformation impacts preexistent relationship dynamics, and how those exact dynamics provide the appropriate friction for growth of each party.

ET, something about this sentence really spoke to me: "“I don’t know who you are anymore. And I’m not sure if I can go where you’re going.” Anyone who have been in a relationship knows what this means. If they haven't experienced it, then at the very least, it is something they'd fear. Great observation.

Thanks Thalia. Sounds like you’re speaking from experience. Fear is right. 😮

My 9 year old loves to quote YouTuber Steven He’s catchphrase: “Emotional damage!” Seems appropriate here.

Emotional damage is a good way of putting it. :)
