So many of you are resonating with my last post on bonds vs. relationships. Specifically, how you can feel or be told that you have a “close family” yet you feel like familiar strangers. Something I’ve always experienced and couldn’t really put words to. Authentic relationships have an important distinction: there is an emotional connection, a wanting of a deep “knowing” of another person. There’s clear communication, boundaries, an openness, + a safety between two people. Of course to have authentic relationships we have to have the skills of emotional regulation, communication around mutual needs, + commitment to emotional vulnerability. Skills many of us don’t have because we’ve never been modeled them. All things that can be learned. Without these emotional connections, we struggle to connect to others. It may even feel confusing like we “should” feel closer because we spend so much time with someone. Or have known them for so long. Our need to connect to other human beings is hardwired in our DNA, so when we aren’t emotionally connected, we don’t stop seeking that connection. We find other ways to seek it. Ways that are attempts to find connections that can be hurtful or confusing. Do you feel connected emotionally in your relationships? Or is there room for work to be done? #selfhealers
