My unpopular opinion… ⤵️
❌ The LENGTH OF TIME that you're single has nothing to do with whether or not you are ready to get into a new relationship.
❤️🩹 Instead, it has way more to do with HOW MUCH HEALING you have done since the end of your last relationship.
💔 You can stay SINGLE FOR YEARS, continuing to blame your ex-partner for all the things that went wrong. You can spend your time numbing your feelings by drinking, sleeping around, and avoiding looking inward.
💔 You can also JUMP FROM ONE RELATIONSHIP TO ANOTHER, continuing to repeat the same unhealthy patterns. You can be blinded by the “amazing chemistry”, never realizing your own unhealed wounds are contributing to your inability to develop or maintain a healthy relationship after the honeymoon phase is over.
📆 The success of your next relationship has nothing to do with how many days you cross off your calendar.
🤔 So HOW DO YOU HEAL after a breakup?

Drop a ❤️ in the comments section if you are letting go of perfection!
Perfection is boring.
It's unrealistic.
And it's unattainable.
It’s so much more freeing to just be YOU.

Here are a few tips for being more vulnerable and intimate in your relationship [SAVE for later 🔖] ⤵️
1️⃣ Start by sharing small things. If you're not used to being vulnerable, start by sharing small things with your partner, like how you're feeling about your day or something that's been on your mind.
2️⃣ Be specific. When you're sharing with your partner, be specific about what you're feeling and why. This will help them to understand you better and offer support.
3️⃣ Be honest. Even if it's difficult, be honest with your partner about your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This is the only way to build true intimacy.
4️⃣ Listen to your partner. When your partner is sharing with you, take the time to listen attentively and offer support. This shows them that you care about them and that you're there for them.
5️⃣ Be patient. It takes time to build trust and intimacy. Don't expect to be able to open up to your partner completely overnight.

If you're someone who struggles with vulnerability and letting others in, here's a question for you ⤵️
What are you afraid of when you think of letting your guard down?
Most of the time, it's the fear of rejection. You may be afraid that if you show your true self, especially your vulnerable self, people will reject you and they'll think less of you.
❤️🩹 But here's the thing: vulnerability is a strength. It shows that you're brave enough to be yourself, even when it's hard. It shows that you're open to connection and intimacy.
And people are drawn to vulnerability. When we see someone being vulnerable, it makes us feel safe to be vulnerable ourselves. It creates a deeper level of connection and intimacy.

Going on vacation with your partner can be a great way to strengthen your connection and bond. BUT if you don't have a strong foundation in place, it can actually amplify any problems you're already having. 😬
Think about it: when you're on vacation, you're spending 24/7 with your partner. There are no distractions from work, kids, or other obligations. So if you're not already communicating well, resolving conflict effectively, and showing each other affection, those issues are going to come to the surface quickly.
That's why it's so important to practice being intimate with each other BEFORE you go on vacation. 🏖️ This means having open and honest conversations about your needs and expectations, being vulnerable and supportive of each other, and finding ways to connect emotionally and physically.
Here are a few tips for building a strong foundation with your partner:
[Don’t forget to SAVE for later!]
⌚ Make time for each other, even when you're busy. This could mean going on regular date nights, taking a walk together after dinner, or simply talking for a few minutes before bed.
💭 Communicate openly and honestly about your needs and expectations. This includes talking about things like your finances, your s*x life, and your parenting philosophy.
🥳 Be supportive of each other's dreams and goals. Encourage each other to go after what they want in life and be there to celebrate their successes.
❤️🩹 Learn to resolve conflict effectively. This doesn't mean avoiding conflict altogether, but it does mean communicating respectfully and finding solutions that work for both of you.
👩❤️👨 Show each other affection regularly. This could mean physical touch, words of affirmation, or acts of service.
