I read here people wanting to take back their power, or get back control. I'm wondering what that means.

 

Who are you taking it back "from"..the ex?

 

How do they have YOUR power?

 

Isn't it really your power that you have given away to your insecurities? Your fear of letting go? Your dependency on him/her, the relationship?

 

When the ex ignores you and doesn't want you, you feel drained of your inner power, but it's not because he/she has "taken" it. It's because you have placed your "power charger" in the other person. As if they are the electricity you need to plug your battery charger into. Your self esteem and self worth (ie: your "power") is not dependent on HIM or HER.

 

So when they finally do come back, maybe even begging, you feel EMPOWERED! Finally, she's back and "I am in control!!". Until she leaves again, then you are left deflated and empty.

 

Plug yourself into another source to get powerful. God, universe, whatever...as long as its not a human being.
