In a world full of possibilities, almost-relationships are widespread. You get to know each other, fall in love, but something is missing, and suddenly you find yourself caught in an emotional dilemma. That's where I come in as your coach. Let’s navigate through these complicated feelings together and find out how to discover more joy and fulfillment in your life.
The first step is recognizing your own needs. What are you truly seeking in a relationship? Is it companionship, support, or perhaps simply the feeling of being loved? Often, it can be difficult to communicate our needs, and we end up entering compensatory relationships that do not provide us with the fulfillment we deserve.
Understanding longing
You should ask yourself: What am I hoping for from this relationship? Is it the idea or the person? Often, we remain in these relationships because we have the hope that they will eventually come together. However, the chances are slim. By acknowledging reality, you open doors to new possibilities and healthier relationships.
Self-worth and setting boundaries
Setting boundaries can help you regain control over your emotional situation. It’s okay to set the expectations you need to feel safe and valued. Respect your own time and energy, and recognize that you are worth being in a relationship that provides you with what you need.
Letting go of the pain
To let go of the pain, it can be helpful to practice conscious mindfulness. Write down what you feel, reflect on it, and talk to friends or a therapist. Support yourself by not ignoring the heavy emotions, but rather allowing them space. The key is to draw a conclusion and carry the lessons learned into the future.
Remember that the process of self-discovery and emotional healing takes time. Enjoy the journey and be patient with yourself. Every step you take to understand your emotions is a step toward a happier future. Leave the pain behind and open yourself up to the joy of life!
