As a couple, do you like to perform, both in your personal and professional life? Maybe you are part of this new love trend: “Rise-Romance”.
If each couple has its own “how to” for operating, certain romantic relationships are built on the same foundations. This is particularly the case for couples belonging to the “Rise-Romance” movement, which designates a type of romantic relationship in which the partners focus on mutual “progression” in all aspects of their lives.
A joint quest towards excellence and ascension
Maximize your potential together. This is how one might describe, in a few words, “Rise Romance” – a concept that is based on the idea of partners actively engaging in a joint quest towards excellence and ascension.
“In a “Rise-Romance”, the couple becomes a strategic alliance where each partner is at the same time mentor, support and catalyst for personal and mutual success. This perspective revolutionizes the traditional conception of the romantic relationship, by injecting it with an ambition for continuous growth and mutual and personal development. Far from being confined to the search for compatibility or shared pleasure, this relationship is an invitation to build a partnership where the success of one is inseparable from the success of the other. reveals the press release from the Seeking.com site, a dating site.
Some famous couples perfectly illustrate this romantic trend. They also prove that success and fame can be built”on a foundation of mutual support, shared growth and true love“, the site further specifies.
This is particularly the case for:
- Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan: “They met at Harvard University before Facebook made Mark Zuckerberg a billionaire and they became one of the most influential figures in global technology.”.
- LeBron James and Savannah Brinson: “LeBron and Savannah have been together since high school, long before LeBron became one of the biggest stars in world basketball“.
- Warren Buffett and Susan Thompson: “Warren Buffett, the billionaire investor, met Susan Thompson in college. They married in 1952, long before Buffett became one of the richest and most respected men in the world“.
- Jeff and MacKenzie Bezos: “Before founding Amazon and becoming one of the richest people on the planet, Jeff Bezos met MacKenzie Scott when they both worked at DE Shaw, a hedge fund firm in New York. They married in 1993, and MacKenzie played a crucial role in Amazon’s early years“.
- Bono and Ali Hewson: “U2 singer Bono met Alison Stewart at secondary school in Ireland. Their relationship began long before U2 became one of the most famous rock bands in the world“.
- Stephen and Tabitha King: “The bestselling author met Tabitha when they were both students at the University of Maine. Tabitha supported Stephen early in his writing career, at a time when he was struggling to get published“.
- Snoop Dogg and Shante Taylor: “Real name Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr., Snoop Dog met his wife long before he became famous. They met in high school and married in 1997, after Snoop Dogg had already begun his music career, but before he reached the height of his global stardom“.
The advantages offered by this type of relationship seem numerous: strengthening of the emotional bond, better understanding and support in the face of challenges, personal and professional development of the partners, etc.
“A “Rise-Romance” also promotes a healthy work-life balance, helping to improve overall well-being. Mutual help and support in all aspects of life play a crucial role in improving the well-being of each partner, thereby strengthening the quality of the relationship”, assures Emma Hathron, dating expert for Seeking.com.
Beware of too many objectives!
But be careful not to idealize this tendency: “Rise-Romance” can also prove difficult when the couple puts too much pressure on themselves to achieve their goals. One of the members may then feel frustrated or simply exhausted.
“Dependence on the partner for one’s own growth and well-being can become a trap, as can neglecting individual needs and desires in favor of common goals.“, the press release further specifies.
In fact, couples who aspire to rise in this way must be attentive to the needs (and limits) of each, so that the potential of each partner flourishes fully.
