文章分享- 「感情銀行」

轉貼一篇我在網路上看到的文章


每個人的心靈裡都有個情感銀行戶頭。
　　韋哈雷（Willard Harler）稱它為愛情銀行。
　　羅坎伯（Ross Campbell）稱它為情感倉庫。
　　柯維（Stephen Covey）稱它為情感銀行戶頭。

　　就像銀行戶頭一樣，它會有存款與取款。 如果你經常在情人戶頭中存款，戶頭的款項愈多，你們的關係愈穩固。

　　即使偶爾因自私或不夠體貼而支款，你也不至於因此透支。如果戶頭款項很低，每次的衝突將會擴大其嚴重性。信任和欣賞的準備金一旦陷入負債狀態，而我們不斷透支的話，感情或婚姻會被推入破產邊緣。成功的婚姻祕訣是，充滿你情人的情感銀行戶頭，直到它滿體貼，使它的資產遠超負債，你就會享受到豐富的愛心，醉人的親密，滿溢的信任。

　　這個情感銀行戶頭的觀念，巴默理（Patrick Morler）稱它是男女關係中最重要的概念。懂得在對方情感銀行經常存款，避免支款，是成功關係的最佳利器。

　　人生錯綜複雜，我們都有可能偶爾失控，傷害了情人、配偶。避免情感銀行戶頭透支的最有效辦法是：平常多多存款，多說感激欣賞的話，多作體貼關懷的行動。距離的遙遠，真的是造成彼此情感不能維繫的真正主因嗎？

　　我認為不是，那只不過是一般人拿來塘塞的藉口，若真的如此，為何仍有那麼多每天相處在一起的人面臨分手的命運。我想人應該在情感的路上多一點勇氣，喜歡就該讓對方知道，不論對方接受與否，至少不會讓自己生命中留有遺憾，說不定對方也喜歡你，只不過不敢表達罷了。若有幸遇上彼此心怡的人，那就更應該好好把握與珍惜，不要被一些外在因素所影響，該好好面對自己的心，堅持當初的選擇，不要輕易放棄。

謹送給已婚者------請多珍惜你最初的選擇
謹送給未婚者------請珍惜生命勇敢放心去愛

The Emotions Bank

Willard Harler calls it the Love Bank. Ross Campbell names it the Emotions Depot. Stephen Covey calls it the Emotions Bank Account. Just like a financial bank account, you can make deposits or withdrawals on the Emotions Bank Account. The more deposits you make on your lover’s Emotions Bank Account, the more stable your relationship will be. Even if occasionally you withdraw from this account out of selfishness or thoughtlessness, it will not bust your account. But if the deposit is low, every conflict will become more serious when it happens.

Once the funds of trust and appreciation fall into deficit, and you continue to overdraw, your relation or marriage will be pressed to the edge of bankruptcy. The secret of a successful marriage is to fill your lover’s Emotions Bank Account with consideration and make its assets far exceed its debt. In this way, you can enjoy abundant care, loving intimacy, and steadfast trust shared between you and your lover. Patrick Morler asserts that this idea of Emotions Bank Account is the most important concept in the relationship between men and women. It is the most efficient instrument for establishing a successful relationship to frequently make deposits on your lover’s account and at the same time, avoid withdrawals from it.

What a husband can do to make deposits on his wife’s Emotions Bank Account:
1. Give her a passionate hug in the morning.
2. Make tea or coffee for her.
3. Make the bed voluntarily.
4. Take out the trash in the evening.
5. Take children to school.
6. Treat her parents well.
7. Fold the family’s laundry.
8. Give her birthday presents.
9. Provide for the needs of your family.
10. Say caring and appreciative words to her.

How a wife can build up deposits on her husband’s Emotions Bank Account:
1. Welcome him when he comes home from work.
2. Care about his work and career.
3. Prepare dinner with much care.
4. Satisfy his physical needs.
5. Give him a surprise on the wedding anniversary.
6. Appreciate his talents and personality.
7. Discuss problems only in a nice atmosphere.
8. Let him watch his favorite ball games.
9. Dress yourself neat and lovely.
10. Take good care of his parents.

How a husband withdraws from his wife’s Emotions Bank Account:
1. Neglect listening to her.
2. Devote all your energy to work.
3. Consider her as first place in your life.
4. Criticize her looks and habits.
5. Be self-centered and inconsiderate.
6. Lose your temper over trivial things.
7. Refuse to help with housework.
8. Spend money to satisfy your own hobbies.
9. Be indifferent toward your wife’s worries.
10. Refuse to communicate with her.

How a wife withdraws from her husband’s Emotions Bank Account?
1. Turn down the needs of romantic love.
2. Curse his interests and hobbies.
3. Look untidy and droopy.
4. Always nag.
5. Complain of his low income.
6. Compare him with successful figures.
7. Try to change his every habit.
8. Criticize his body figure and intelligence.
9. Show discontent with his achievement in career.
10. Scold him for being good-for-nothing.

Life is intricately complex; we all may lose control at one time or another and end up hurting the feelings of our lovers or spouses. The most effective way to keep the Emotions Bank Account from going bust is to increase your deposits every now and then through showing appreciation and behaving thoughtfully.
Does distance really make it difficult to sustain a relationship? I do not think so. That is just an excuse. If it is indeed the case, then why are there so many couples who live together but still break up?

In my opinion, we should be more courageous when traveling on the road of love. Show your love when you feel it; even if he or she declines your affection, at least you will not feel regret later in your life. It just might happen that the person you are in love with is also fond of you but just dare not tell. If by luck we meet someone and find mutual love between each other, we should make efforts to maintain the relationship well and cherish the one we love. Try not to be affected by other factors but face our heart and persist in the original choice without giving up easily.

For those who are already married, please treasure the person you have originally chosen. For those who are still single, please cherish your life and march forward to love.
