When meditation partners grow in different directions

My meditation partner and I started sitting together three years ago and it deepened both our practices in ways we couldn't have imagined, but lately we've been having completely different experiences during our shared sits and I'm starting to wonder if we're actually helping each other anymore or just performing some idea of spiritual partnership. We keep saying the sessions are 'good' but neither of us talks about what's really happening in the silence.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two practitioners must navigate the delicate terrain of evolving spiritual intimacy when their inner experiences begin to diverge.
