@burned_notbroken: when someone is moving down the path of relationship burnout, their nervous system shifts from the sympathetic state to the dorsal vagal state. both are caused by a lack of emotional safety. but getting to the dorsal state means the relationship is heading toward destruction. repair can happen in both states but looks different. #relationshipburnout #emotionalsafety #burnedoutpursuer #relationshiprepair #polyvagaltheory

So my boyfriend asked for a break of 2 months with the uncertainty and no guarantee of getting back together. Long story short he forced my last lie out of me as I had already recognized I had a problem and don’t love myself. I had started therapy 2 weeks before this happened. I am still working on it and want to love myself and get out of my head when it comes to control and worrying about the future. The one thing my boyfriend or ex said was that maybe weekly we can do phone or physical check ins. I recognize that isn’t a guarantee as well but idk if that will be good for me while I need healing from within. Should I keep the “check ins”Is there anything you can

Damn. My wife is in that last stage…I’m loving her from afar. Giving her all the space she needs. I hope one day we can work our way into something even better than we had before

What if they say they don’t know what they want? They aren’t sure if they want me to give them space but they don’t really want me to stop reaching out. He’s not ready to even discuss working the relationship he needs time to heal.

Do we just let our partner be in the dorsal state? Do we reach out, or completely "let them be"? For how long? Sometimes I really dont know what to do because every option seems wrong when they are in that state. They dont break up or tell you anything, they just suffer in silence for days and leave you without answers.

I really appreciate these videos.. I was ready to ask for a divorce before I found your separation videos. We’re currently living separately and doing individual trauma therapy to see if we can reconcile and rebuild a healthy relationship.

Would you be open to a dm conversation on a matter like this that I’m going through in my relationship? If not that’s okay, I’m just asking so I can try to know what’s best to do.

I am not sure where my fiancee and I are at. She had bariatric surgery and the recovery has been hard. There’s hurt on both sides but I have not been emotionally available to her since I feel her leaning on family more than me and she says I’m addicted to video games and should “just know how to love me.” Communication is an issue between us. Can I message you to help me understand?

what do I do if my wife wants to see other people during our separation? She wants to experience other things and it's just want to be with her. I want to try separating to see if it might help us. Im not sure i can handle the idea of her being others while we're trying to fix this.

Its a bit backwards for me, im the persuer, im tryign to make it work and im burning out feeling emotionally unsafe but hes the one that wants space and taking space doesnt feel safe cuz im afraid hell cheat. He doesnt want to break up but needs “alone time”. I know what that means tho and thats why i am having alot of anxiety around giving him space. Sometimes we can talk about why hes doing this but other times he says he feels so much shame that its unbearable. But then he keeps doing it. Im burning iht

What if you're giving the space and they point to it as your same lack of care that led to the burn out?

So.... if they've been cheating on their husband for 2 months before its discovered. They then identify themselves in Stage 3-4 of this condition, but say they want to work on the marriage, but wont stop the affair. Does giving space or no contact have any promise here? I get that the husband needs to do their own work and that's the focus. Just curious on what the pct. is on marriage recovery 7nder these facts?
