Orange vs. Green Girlfriend – Can It Work?

[Marten98]

I’ve been evolving more into Stage Green (focus on connection, emotional depth, and shared growth), but my partner is still strongly Stage Orange (ambition, achievement, and individual goals) and not interested in green.

She’s driven and growth-minded but sometimes I feel a gap in emotional depth or shared introspection.

I wonder how a stage green girl is different in the dating/relationship life compared to a stage orange one.

Has anyone made both experiences? I recall Leo recommending to go for the stage green girl.

Very few relationships are sustainable no matter what stage you're at.

Even if she was green there would be the Gap you would be unsatisfied with.

Things that make relationships work out as if both people have the same worldview. 

This shared perspective allows for a deeper understanding and acceptance of each other's values, beliefs, and goals. When partners see the world through a similar lens, they are more likely to navigate challenges with empathy and cooperation. Differences in worldview, on the other hand, can lead to misunderstandings, conflict, and ultimately, a breakdown in the relationship. It's not about being identical, but rather about having a fundamental alignment in how you perceive life and your place within it.

Those green qualities listed sound quite feminine. Maybe you could talk to her about how she could explore her feminine side more and from that gain a more balanced life. She sounds somewhat masculine if she lacks those things you mentioned. Maybe that’s contributing to the issues in the relationship, you being more feminine and she more masculine

I think communication improves connection and emotional empathy. Maybe you take her out hiking. Maybe you both can explore connecting to each other empathetically but that would need mutual cooperation and adjustment.
