amaysngrace Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Simple question... Regardless of whether you're married, in a serious relationship, casually dating, or completely single, how do you deal with seeing good looking people day-to-day, whether it's in real life, in popular media, porn, etc.? How does it affect your relationship, if it all, and how do you deal with it? Or how did you deal with it? I appreciate their beauty by looking at them and smiling at them. Unless its a man and then sometimes I get awkward and stutter.
Ruby Slippers Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Your choices, your attractions, your desires are all a deeper reflection of something inside of you...you're like a plane just flying over the surface, even when you think you have searched deeper than previously, you attribute more to "that person", that object than you do unto yourself...everything you respond to is a trigger inside of yourself, along with human nature and human psychology. When you have a greater understanding of yourself, that is when you can consider the true "reality", and impact of consequential interactions with the surface. I agree with this. As I've matured, it's become clear to me that relationships and how you navigate them aren't so much about the other person, or even so much about the connection between you and that person - it's about you. How you communicate and respond, which elements of yourself you're seeking counterbalance, challenge, or assurance on. In this context, you can view all the people and things in your life as pieces on a chessboard that you've manifested and selected to win (or lose) the game with you.
