This article is a great read about how “negativity bias” can affect your relationship and how explains how it may have developed in your relationship. The article even gives some ways to counteract the negative bias. I wanted to share it because I think it’s very common to have this in relationships and I really didn’t know it was a “thing” until I read about it.

@torry22 thanks so so much for sharing with us!
Torry,
I absolutely love this article. I too, didn’t know this was an actual thing. I had always thought that because of my bad past experiences, I was just now being paranoid about certain things now that I’m in a new relationship. It’s good to read that this is not the case, and that there are several ways to change this. I will definitely take this into consideration and put it into practice. Thanks so much for sharing!
