Welcome back to an exciting episode of the Know Your Platform podcast where we're exploring a topic that's often taken for granted - Forced Commitment. Can you really package commitment as a requirement for a romantic relationship? Specifically, is it healthy when some women initiate a competition that demands it?
Commitment is typically characterized as a voluntary act made between two people, making the term 'forced commitment' an oxymoron. This is where things get complicated. A commitment forced upon someone, contrary to their will or choice, can trigger feelings of resentment and insecurity. The paradox is that commitment is supposed to create a sense of security, however, when it is forced, it ends up planting the roots of doubt.
Don't miss this electrifying conversation with Jeremiah Jacksun and David Lewis III, as they inject humor into a conversation belying a serious, universal truth - that is the fact that commitment cannot be secured through force, negotiation, or threats. Commitment, in its true sense, is an act of love, entirely voluntary, and not subject to coercion.
