"I Love You… But I Don’t Like You Right Now" — The Ugly Truth About Modern Relationships

Lina Kanaley Season 1 Episode 2

Dislike for your partner doesn't mean your relationship is doomed — it means you're human.

In this episode of Licensed and Unfiltered, Lina breaks down what it really means when you’re irritated, resentful, or just plain tired of your partner. From passive-aggressive dishwasher fights to Reddit confessions and emotional cycles in long-term love, we explore the difference between disconnection and destruction.

🔎 In this episode, we cover:

  • What your fights are really about (Hint: It’s not the trash)
  • Why you sometimes feel like you “don’t like” your partner
  • Relationship repair cycles: closeness, distance, and reconnection
  • The role of comparison culture and social media on intimacy
  • Listener confessions and the truth behind relationship irritation
  • Therapist-approved tools to reconnect (without losing your mind)
