Day 91 / 108 Challenge

#91

"I bow for my own peace."

I was in a much better state. Dealing with the raw emotion without avoiding or suppressing over the weekend seemed to really alleviate the intensity. I still felt uncomfortable time to time, but the frequency and the intensity were a lot lower.

I also realized that I seem to have greater amount of emotional needs compared to average people. As much as I like to give my loving energy to others, I like to have it in return.

This can often overwhelm the other side in my relationship in the beginning. So my take from this experience is that I must pay attention to what her emotional needs are at a given time, and make up the difference by having it met from family and friends.

Or alternatively, I can be in a relationship where the other side is willing to give more / has more emotional needs.

I also have to constantly remind myself that looks fade away. What is more important in a long-term relationship is

• How easy and fun it is to have a conversation

• Do your core values align

• Can you communicate openly and in a nice manner to each other

• Are you willing to accept each others' flaws

• And most importantly, are you two happy with yourselves
