One of my clients told me she felt disconnected from her partner
So I asked her, “What are you holding back from him?”
She was confused. He was the avoidant one, she said.
Vulnerability creates intimacy. Holding back creates disconnection.
“What haven’t you told him?”
“He won’t be able to hear it.”
“He won’t be able to hear it, or you’re scared to tell him?”
She was scared.
That week she opened up to him. He held her.
She said she never felt that connected to any man before.
Vulnerability creates intimacy.
Withholding creates disconnection.
