This is an unconscious fiercely independent behaviour you developed in the hope to come off as “more attractive and desirable” to a partner.
Shadow work provides the opportunity to dissolve the once unconscious egocentric aspects of self so that you can be who you truly are and experience the life you truly desire.
There’s a Narcissist AND Empath within every single one of us.
Empathy and Narcissism are coping strategies we developed as children when our emotional needs weren’t being met.
There’s little awareness or warning when buying vibrators on the effect over stimulating has on the nervous system.
Sexless relationship/marriage is far too common. So many people suffering in silence, too scared to speak up in fear of being “needy”.
Suppressed sexual energy contributes to emotional distress, mental health and psychiatric symptoms.
When we look at infidelity with an intra-psychic and relational lens there are many happenings and perspectives.
An open relationship should not be pushed. There’s no space for narcissism. Unconditional love is not unconditional tolerance. No one benefits when people are forced to stretch their values. The conversation needs to be explored in a mature and safe way with no agenda to avoid conflict or hurt. Agreements, boundaries, desires, fears and reassurance are the focus. No clarity creates chaos!
