If you listen to Loveline most of the calls about relationship and sexual issues boil down to these issues. It's really an issue of not being able to tolerate real intimacy and closeness.
Every time you see the object of your fixation it's like taking a hit. But it's an empty upper that leads to an inevitable downer. Recognizing and admitting the pattern is a great start! |
Thank you so, so much. I really appreciate your help. I can't tell you how much this whole thing has really been upsetting me, and I'm not someone who opens up very easily, so posting the whole thing was really hard. I'm going to check out the book now. I don't know if I can manage therapy because, like I said, the whole idea of opening up makes me so physically uncomfortable, but I do appreciate what you've said so much.
