So I'm making this post because I've gone through a lot of self-reflection and inner childhood healing over the past few years. I wanted to ask, how your dating life improved or changed after learning more about your attachment styles and love languages.
My attachment style changes from an anxious attachment to a secure attachment depending on my partner. I realized that the more avoidant they were the more anxious I became. It took a lot of podcasts and patience on how to navigate through these feelings and work through them. Oh, my love language is physical touch, time, and words of affirmation.
Personally, after focusing more on myself and deciding that self-love was important (WHICH WAS SO HARD BTW), I've become a lot happier about myself and had a clearer picture of what kind of partner I wanted to be. It made me so much more patient, understanding, and super empathetic.
I finally understood what I wanted all along, which was a beautiful friendship with my potential partner. I realized how important it is to feel safe and vulnerable enough to laugh about anything and everything. Having someone I can feel vulnerable enough to show my inner child yet still love and trust them enough to have a serious talk when needed. It's so amazing to have a partner who you can have a proper conversation with. Someone you're able to navigate through those difficult moments just through communication, no yelling, no arguments, no fights just pure words and patience.
Anyways, having hobbies is also beautiful. I find it amazing to see someone being consumed with something they love, it's honestly the cutest thing ever. I, on the other hand, enjoy pottery, art, hiking, anime, games, and TV shows.
If you've undergone some inner childhood healing or are currently going through the process I'd like to hear from you. If you'd just like to have a chat about yourself, wanting to find friendship or explore more I'm more than happy to talk to you.
