Respond Constructively
做出有建设性的回应
This exercise was inspired by the work of Shelly Gable, a social psychologist at the University of California, Santa Barbara, who has extensively studied marriages and other close relationships. The next time someone you care about shares good news, give what Dr. Gable calls an“active constructive response.”
这项练习是受了加州大学圣芭芭拉分校(University of California, Santa Barbara)社会心理学家谢利·盖布尔(Shelly Gable)的工作的启发。盖布尔对婚姻和其他亲密关系进行了大量研究。下次你在乎的人和你分享好消息时，要做出盖布尔所说的“积极的、有建设性的回应”。
That is, instead of saying something passive like,“Oh, that’s nice”or being dismissive, express genuine excitement. Prolong the discussion by, say, encouraging them to tell others or suggest a celebratory activity.
这是指不要说些被动的话，比如“哦，不错啊”，或是表现得不屑一顾，而是要表现出真正的激动。比如，通过鼓励他们告诉其他人或建议举行一个庆祝活动，来延长相关讨论。
“Love goes better, commitment increases, and from the literature, even sex gets better after that.”
“这么做以后，爱情变得更加美好，责任感有所增加，并且从文献资料来看，就连性生活都会变得更好。”
