@ I_C: disagree all you want. If you think a long term relationship is all about stability and routine you are doomed to never have one that lasts. You said “human beings do altruistic tasks for the greater good of the whole”, the question is why? My opinion is we do it because it is what we want to do. If not then it is not fun, enjoyable, thrilling! Intrinsic Motivation is doing something because it is FUN, important, suits our values and beliefs. If you are not intrinsically motivated to start every task with your best foot forward and be a great ‘life partner’, parent, employee, nice person, what ever you want to be then it won’t happen. If your motivation is external, your likely hood of doing your best and enjoying it along the way is small.
Good luck I_C, the reality we pull over our own eyes does not always reflect what other see.
