@relationshipswithaly: When s* xual expectations aren’t met, it’s easy to slip into: - passive aggressiveness - shutting down - withdrawing - assuming rejection Instead, it’s imperative that you communicate through these moments. Acknowledge the real feelings that you have and allow your partner to support you through them. Resist the temptation to shut down and find ways that you still can connect and that work for both of you in the moment. Don’t fall into the trap of black or white thinking that it either happens now or it doesn’t happen at all, be open to the possibility that this open communication is the start of feeling closer and that may be your s* xual desires will be met tomorrow. I work with couples specifically on how to communicate about hard topics without triggering defensiveness and shutdown. Head to my link in bio to access my TALK Blueprint framework or start my 14 day intimacy challenge for couples. If you’d rather that I send it to you directly, DM the word “welcome”. Oh, and I hope you enjoyed some hot new years seggs :) Disclaimer: Social Media is not therapy. This content is for educational and entertainment purposes only.
