When we look at the people we love, how clearly do we really see them? This week, we talk with psychologist [https://psyc.umd.edu/facultyprofile/lemay/edward"]( Edward Lemay about how our fears, desires, and insecurities can shape our perceptions of our partners — sometimes creating the very reality we expect. He explains how we can learn to see our partners in ways that create greater trust and connection. Then, [https://profiles.ucr.edu/app/home/profile/sonja"]( Sonja Lyubomirsky answers your questions about the gap between being loved and _feeling_ loved, in our latest installment of "Your Questions Answered." _If you enjoy listening to Hidden Brain, we think you'll enjoy watching it as well!
