Identifying Shared Reactive Patterns in Couples

Boyle and Jensen discuss how couples often share the same reactive patterns, such as denial or defensiveness, even if they manifest differently. They address the common tendency for partners to label each other as narcissists during a breakup, noting that such labels are often a way to numb one's own feelings. By loosening these shared patterns, both individuals gain the "wiggle room" necessary for personal and relational growth.
