On Love
by Michel Cymes and Patricia Chalon
Description
A psychologist and a doctor discuss everything about love.
“We definitely don’t understand each other… we might as well be speaking different languages!” This is more or less how a good many heated conversations between men and women end.
Eventually, once the crisis is over, we realise that – despite our love, our good faith and our best efforts – it was all a huge… misunderstanding.
It’s in an attempt to clear up this very misunderstanding (because we are old friends, one a man, the other a woman, one a doctor, the other a psychologist), that we felt we wanted to try to get to know each other so as to have a real chance of better understanding each other’s language, despite our obvious differences.
We searched through our respective professional practices for anything that might explain behavioural differences from a psychological or medical point of view. We also interviewed people around us, particularly the younger generation, because we wanted to understand how their vision of the world differed from our own.
