Letting Go with Guy Finley

The “promise” of any pleasure to come is really nothing more or less than the memory of a pleasing sensation imagined as just being ahead of you; in truth, it is projected there — onto the screen of the mind — from somewhere out of your past. The power of these wants, and the passion…

Question: Could you please share your insights on trusting your partner with regards to attempting to have a meaningful relationship?
