'Profound love involves kindness, generosity, and sympathetic joy for the beloved’s success.'

Development and Self-Fulfillment in Romantic Relationshipsmarriage

A new study by Kathleen Carswell and colleagues examined the relationship between personal development and romantic passion. As in other studies, they found that shared personal development significantly increases the passion of both partners and the relationship’s quality. A topic which has been less studied is whether positive personal development, which is not associated with one’s partner, and is indeed a major part of our personal development, also enhances passion in the relationship.

Profound love, in which shared activities are central, requires an autonomy and equal status of each partner, despite their differences. Seeing the partner as “above” or “beneath” themselves is problematic, since this necessarily requires comparison, a type of poison to romantic relationships.
