Re: Soulful...Re: sexless relationship
Heck, no, B2! I was referring to the gentleman who advised Jacob to play mind-games by being emotionally unavailable (symptom of NARCISSISM) to bait, lure, and ensnare a female because it worked for him. There was no mention of maintaining intimacy nor maintaining Self on an honest, truthful level and it rankled me.
I really have to back way off when I see posts like that - it brings back hundreds of episodes and sessions, personally, and from the counseling end where men (and, women) have used human emotional fragility as a tool and, later, as a merciless weapon of control. More than dozens of times, I've had to call a time-out and "get some water" in order to pull my Self back to the ground when I heard this type of ploy. And, the worst part was that the perpetrator of the mind-games was hardly EVER in counseling with his/her victim. I'm gonna shaddup, now - I feel a rant coming on...
Hope this reassures you, B2 - your posts are insightful and from the heart.
