      Yes. I probably have. It has helped me to reflect more on how I relate, why I relate that way, how others relate to me, and why they relate to me that way. In the end, reflecting on these things means I have more self-understanding than I used to – and probably more empathy – because I’m taking the time to think about how others might be seeing things differently from me. That is probably the most helpful thing of all. Of course, I’m not a “perfect” relater in any sense! I make mistakes, get angry,have arguments – like everybody else too.
