Marx on the diminishing returns of Love

  • What thoughts and feelings are you suppressing to avoid challenging the relationship? And are they heavy costs on your emotional labor?
  • What sacrifices are you making that seem easy in the moment, but might not be over time? Will you be able to cover these costs on annual basis?
    For example, the annual cost of Birthdays, Valentine’s Day, Anniversaries, and in the long run wedding costs which might lead to never ending family expenses.
  • What red flags (besides the communist flag) are you seeing that might be acceptable now but you know would not work over time if you don’t face them now?
  • What attitudes or behaviors in your partner bother you that you are not sharing?
    For example, wasting resources.
  • What other significant compromises would you need to make?
    For example, realizing that you might be spending less time with your comrades.
