Todd’s Thursday Thought for Relationship Bliss: Stop Protecting Yourself

What are the ways you protect yourself from hurt that may limit your capacity to give and receive love from your partner?

Make a short list, here’s some things to get you started:

  • Do you avoid affection or touch?
  • Do you avoid eye contact?
  • Do you avoid the challenging conversations?
  • Do you have a hard time being conversationally open?

Think about your parents’ relationship and other role models you had growing up.

What did you learn about relationships: 

  • What beliefs did you develop?
  • What fears did you incorporate?

Then vow to work on one behavior on your list that will begin transforming the limiting fear, behavior or self-protective mechanism.

By doing this you will create a relationship with your partner that is more alive, passionate and creates a deeper sense of fulfillment for both of you.

Here’s to getting the love you want!
