Translator: Ailie McCorkindale

00:09

"So, we need to talk."

00:11

Hearing those four simple words from your relationship partner

00:14

never feels good.

00:16

Your heart sinks, palpitates,

00:19

your stomach flutters, your palms get sweaty

00:21

because it's never, "We need to talk about what a great relationship we have,

00:26

how we're best friends

00:27

and how we'll spend the rest of our lives together."

00:29

It's never that.

00:30

It's always, "We need to talk about the beginning of the end."

00:35

And whether your relationship is awful, good or great,

00:38

we don't like endings, we don't like to lose things,

00:41

and especially, we don't like to lose things that are important to us.

00:44

And make no mistake,

00:45

relationships are the single most important thing to you in your life.

00:51

It's the source of all of your best memories.

00:53

It's the source of all of your worst memories.

00:56

When you think back on your life, when you're 95, 100 years old,

01:00

and you look back over the course of your lifetime,

01:02

you're not going to think, "I wish I owned a better phone.

01:05

I wish I spent more time on the Internet.

01:08

I wish I spent more time at work or sleeping."

01:10

It's not going to be any of those kinds of things.

01:13

It's going to be, "I wish I spent more time with the people I love"

01:17

because our relationships, they build us, they define us, they sustain us,

01:23

and they can break us too.

01:25

And we know relationship break-up can be tough, right?

01:29

The research is pretty clear:

01:30

loneliness, depression, increased crime, increased drug use.

01:34

Some of my own research shows

01:36

that break-ups lead you to experience a loss of self,

01:40

so when you lose a relationship,

01:42

part of who you are as a person goes with it

01:46

because relationships are important.

01:49

And it's bad, don't get me wrong, it can be bad,

01:51

but it's often not as bad as we think.

01:54

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon and Northwestern

01:56

asked people who are currently in happy relationships

01:59

to look out into the future, to make a prediction,

02:02

and they said, you know, "If your relationship were to end,

02:05

how bad would you feel about it?"

02:08

And then, those researchers do what researchers do is they waited.

02:11

And they waited for those people, those happy, happy relationships,

02:14

they waited for those people to break up.

02:16

(Laughter)

02:20

Because only then could they actually see how bad was it, right?

02:26

They waited for them to break up and said, "So, how bad is it now that you broke up?"
