Does it ever feel like there is an invisible forcefield between you and your partner?
You are sitting right next to them, but you feel miles apart. Itโs not a lack of love; itโs often an invisible barrier blocking true intimacy.
These common sources are the culprits:
๐ ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐๐ ๐ง๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐บ๐ฎ: Unresolved wounds that make vulnerability feel unsafe.
๐ ๐๐๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ต๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐ฆ๐๐๐น๐ฒ๐: Anxious or avoidant patterns learned early in life that dictate how we connect (or protect ourselves).
๐ ๐ฃ๐ผ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐๐ป๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ถ๐๐: Getting stuck in cycles of criticism, defensiveness, or shutting down instead of opening up.
Itโs easy to blame ourselves or our partners when intimacy gets blocked. But often, we are just operating with old programming that no longer serves the relationship.
Therapy isn't about assigning blame. Itโs about learning how to take down the wall, brick by brick, in a safe environment.
