And, there is a good chance that you and your partner are what we refer to as an "Imago Match". Imago is Latin for "image". This word refers to the idea that within each of us is an unconscious image or map that we seek when we choose a romantic partner. Left to our unconscious drives (and most of us are), we will select a person who is uniquely qualified to frustrate us. That's right, as crazy as it might seem. The committed relationship is the best way to find out who you really are and actually grow for the better.

Intense frustration usually means your "power struggle" with your partner is fully engaged. Paradoxically, this frustration can mean that you are actually well matched with your partner. However, your relationship may need to be reengineered in order to provide a new environment in which growth and healing can begin.

If the frustration in a relationship is unresolved for long enough, criticism, stonewalling, contempt and/or apathy can become the defense mechanisms that can destabilize the relationship. If any of these defenses are present in your relationship, you'll need help getting back on track.
