1
Here is an insight that if it was properly taught to us,
2
if there were classes in it at secondary school,
3
could save us years, could help the economy,
4
could make a major improvement to humankind.
5
Instead, we keep the knowledge secret,
6
so that in every generation,
7
millions of people have to work their way through the painful mystery by themselves.
8
It's as reckless as if we hit the secret of agriculture
9
and made each new generation work out how to raise wheat by themselves.
10
Surely the point of civilisation is to share knowledge and ensure
11
that our successors can benefit from the pain and the hard-won insight of those who came before.
12
It works when it comes to the secrets of pottery or physics.
13
Why would we not do the same with love?
14
So the insight is this.
15
If you're a little unlucky,
16
you are liable to come across someone in your love life who will be sweet
17
and charming and tell you with great sincerity that they want a relationship.
18
They will be extremely affectionate and focused on you, at first.
19
They'll find nicknames and be tender towards small insecurities that others have missed.
20
Naturally, in short order, you'll fall very in love with them.
21
You'll start to imagine marriage in the very long term.
22
You'll tell friends you've found the one.
23
And then, over time, it could be six months or six years,
24
probably not too much longer than that,
25
something very hard to see will start to happen.
26
Crises will emerge.
27
They'll want to spend more time with their friends.
28
They'll be busy at work.
29
They'll discover a fascinating hobby,
30
they'll grow irritable, they won't want to have sex anymore.
31
Naturally, in such conditions, you'll reach for dialogue and imagine that this is just a momentary challenge.
32
Let's talk about what's going on,
33
how can we restore kindness and sweetness?
34
You will try very hard.
35
But the person who has been so lovely for so long won't properly engage.
36
They may get irritable, they may deny that anything's up,
37
they may come close again for a while and then the negative patterns will resume.
38
There is something that they're not telling us,
39
something that sounds so weird as to defy the ordinary workings of our minds.
40
They are, let's put it this way, afraid of love.
41
They don't want a relationship that actually works,
42
in the sense of deepens.
43
They thought they did, but the reality is appalling.
44
However, they don't quite grasp this about themselves.
45
Everything is happening at an instinctive level.
46
They don't understand why they want to cause an argument, but they do.
47
They don't know why they're staying out again without calling us, but they are.
48
They couldn't say why they're irritable, but they are.
49
They have a particular psychology.
50
It's been called, usefully in some quarters, avoidant.
51
Way back, as children, something happened to them.
52
Such people are made and not born.
53
They picked up an appalling suspicion.
54
Other people are unsafe.
55
Therefore, I need to be on my own.
56
No one can own me.
57
I need always to have an escape route.
58
I don't want to be tied down.
59
There's always a letdown that's going to come.
60
And maybe even further in the recesses of their mind,
61
I'm a little shit.
62
I'm ugly.
63
No one must get to the inner sanctum.
64
Of course, none of this is said,
65
it isn't even really known.
66
What should be more widely taught is the danger of such people.
67
They truly can make us lose decades and our minds.
68
It doesn't make ordinary sense.
69
Ordinary sense says two people who like each other move ever closer and make a life of it.
70
But the annals of depth psychology say,
71
one person who likes another may panic so
72
that they move very subtly away without ever admitting
73
that this is what they're doing and without even quite knowing it of themselves.
74
What would a class on all this at secondary school advise?
75
That if we ever meet such a person,
76
and a quarter of the population does match this description,
77
One must be very careful indeed not to get caught up in a web.
78
One must give everyone a few chances to step forward and love us,
79
and then if they don't,
80
we must never ever stay around to do a PhD in Y.
81
Four chances and then we're off.
82
If we find ourselves after years in a hot and cold situation,
83
we don't need to find out any more.
84
Love should be essentially quite simple.
85
And as soon as it gets complicated,
86
it's a sign not of depth or romance or beauty,
87
but of something far simpler and starker.
88
That we are liable to have landed on a lover who is terrified of love.
89
And therefore that we must,
90
in very short order, to save ourselves, leave.

Informazioni su questa Lezione

In questa lezione, esploreremo i complessi temi dell'amore e delle relazioni, come illustrato nel video "Those Who Are Terrified of Love". I partecipanti praticheranno la comprensione e l'uso di vocaboli e frasi chiave legate alle emozioni e alle dinamiche affettive. Utilizzeremo il metodo del shadow speak, che permetterà agli studenti di affinare la loro pronuncia e fluidità attraverso un esercizio di shadowing in inglese. Durante la sessione, ci concentreremo su espressioni che descrivono le sfide nelle relazioni e l'autoconoscenza emotiva, aiutando gli studenti a migliorare il loro vocabolario specifico per il settore delle interazioni personali.

Vocabolario e Frasi Chiave

  • Pauroso dell'amore - Fearful of love
  • Ritmi delle relazioni - Patterns in relationships
  • Affettività - Affection
  • Impegnato - Busy
  • Colloquio - Dialogue
  • Incertezze - Insecurities
  • Evocare argomenti - To spark discussions
  • Psicologia evitante - Avoidant psychology

Consigli per la Pratica

Quando ti alleni con il video, prova a seguire queste linee guida per massimizzare la tua esperienza di pratica di conversazione in inglese:

  • Ascolta Attentamente: Prima di iniziare con il shadowing, ascolta il video una prima volta per cogliere il tono e il ritmo della narrazione.
  • Ripeti Parole e Frasi: Usa il shadowing site per esercitarti a ripetere immediatamente dopo l'oratore. Parole come "affettività" o "psicologia evitante" sono ottimi punti di partenza.
  • Focalizzati sulle Emozioni: Presta attenzione all'intonazione e alle pause dell'oratore, poiché comunicano emozioni importanti. Cerca di imitarle.
  • Pratica con un Partner: Se possibile, pratica le frasi chiave con un amico. Discutere delle relazioni offre un'opportunità ideale per applicare il vocabolario appreso.
  • Registra il Tuo Voce: Ascolta le tue registrazioni per analizzare migliorie nella pronuncia e nella fluidità, consentendoti di auto-correggerti.

Seguendo questi consigli, avrai una chance migliore di diventare sicuro e fluido nell'uso dell'inglese, mentre esplori argomenti profondi e significativi come l'amore e le relazioni.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
