Daily Love & Life Advice – Your Guide to Navigating Relationships
Certain revelations are being made clear that directly link to repressed emotions. For some, the love or affection you once felt for a person, place, or work has deteriorated over time, or the connection you so desire now seems unattainable.
As a result of negative experiences in your past, you may feel drained or empty, causing you to turn away overtures, reject opportunities, or resist new ideas or relationships. The response to unpleasantness can be to deny the truth of your feelings or mistrust your intuition.
On the other hand, either the contempt you have for the current circumstance or the self-pity prompted by rejection or a sense of loss provokes you to become more jealous, possessive, or self-indulgent. Bitterness can drive you to rely on the pretense of care and concern for someone when the goal is actually manipulation.
But trying to force things to go your way carries a tremendous risk of making matters worse. Feelings are coming up and out, and with them, the self-awareness of a shift that triggers a new perspective. The overwhelming emotions spilling forth can incite the possibility of a hurtful exchange, especially if you find it difficult to come to terms with even one more ounce of negativity in your encounters.
