"That's the incredible high we all call being 'in love'." This feeling, often seen as the ultimate joy, initially comes from a universal energy source. However, many individuals start expecting their partner to provide this energy, which leads them to disconnect from the larger universe's energy flow.

As reliance shifts solely onto the partner, the energy exchange diminishes, causing frustration and conflict. Couples then fall into control struggles, attempting to force their partner to provide the needed energy, ultimately degrading the relationship into a power struggle, as described in James Redfield's book, The Celestine Prophecy.
