Is my relationship in danger when my partner does not enter a likewise process

Your personality suspects that it might be a risk for your relationship to enter a process like this. Since you are going to dig within yourself, and your partner does not do the same, he assumes it cannot but affect your relationship.

There is never a guarantee for a relationship. You can grow apart through small or intense events in your life, or these can bring you closer together. This is no different for a process of increasing Awareness than it is for any other process or situation in your life. Something wíll change, that is logical, but that will happen through other events and personal developments as well. Even when the other person is not consciously working with the same things as you do, this does not mean this would be a problem, nor that this person stays where he is right now for ever. Or, if he does for the time being, that would be a bad thing (e.g. sometimes it turns out to be a good thing when someone does not follow you immediately, so that you will not be carried away too much and have to be down to earth and practical about it).

The good part of increasing Awareness is that it is a liberating process. You not only free yourself, but also your relation/partner from the patterns with which you imprisoned yourself till then. Something is no longer an issue, which is different from the only other perspective your personality knows of, which is having a different point of view. You will not experience this process as much as changing, as it is a pleasant, peaceful and natural result of the process of letting go. And contacts with your partner then are more and more free from personality expectations and issues and have more space available for its true essence: Love. Even though it is likely that you will use the same relationship to practice your becoming aware of personality patterns and letting go of your investment in it as well, which can be quite challenging at times.

You will get experience along the way, and you can tell your personality that when things would get out of hand, you can simply stop if you want, so you need not spend too much time worrying about this.
