      I definitely try to control and blame sometimes in my relationship. Since coming to Kabbalah though, these tendencies and patterns have definitely calmed down a lot and i’m learning to change myself rather than my partner

      I’m looking forward to sharing this information with my husband. I think he will be one board to create a shared space. I can see clearly that he and I both have inherited some egoistic resentment patterns from our families. I know how much we both want to have a loving, secure, and growing relationship

      Being aware that having an ego is normal and necessary for every person to grow is a breath of fresh air. So much guilt is lifted. Then,  knowing there’s a method or opportunity to rise above it and truly connect with my husband and humanity is a beautiful revelation. So let the work/effort begin!

      All these negative attributes that I have are actually opportunities to rise above my ego.

      My wife views Kabbalah as a hobby, she does not understand to me its like “needing” the creator.  I cant change her mind, so I simply have tot accept this is my life.  She honors the fact that I am Jewish because she understands the freedom to peruse a religion.  But she does not see past that because she saw a video that Kabbalah is not a religion.  So she has now defined it as a “hobby”, I have tried sharing it with her, but she is not interested as of now.  So I have to accept that I am being selfish in this and I have to wait on the creator to either pull her to this path, or I simply have to accept that she is not to walk this path with me.

        Hi Richard,
        Perhaps if you share these new goals for a loving, connected relationship with your partner, she will see how much there is to gain from Kabbalah, and how it can truly make life better.
        I don’t know many women who don’t want their partners to make efforts to love them better!
        These principles are universal, and all of Kabbalah is just about learning how to love. I’m sure that if more people could see that, they would openly embrace it.

        Goodluck!

        i am in  the same situation with my husband. the topic of spirituality actually irritates him. i definitely understand what you’re going through and i know how hard it is…there are alot of others in the same situation. it’s sometime hard to know how to navigate the situation but my husband is at least supportive of my desire for spirituality, but still sees the path itself as a hobby, and when he is not calling it a hobby he is switching it up on me and calling it a religion, he hates religion…there are points where he gets angry at me for my studies, the money i spend on it, the time i spend on it, my changing and growing perception of reality, etc…the struggle is real but i trust we aren’t given anything we cannot bare. keep on keepin on! much love man.
