these are steps that no one has taught you.
you didn’t learn this in your family.
you certainly didn’t learn this in the culture you grew up in.
Discussion
speak up for yourself
with love
in our current culture, you can either be accommodating, connected, go along to get along—“feminine”
or you can be assertive, independent—“masculine”
but you can't be both at the same time.
when people assert themselves, they're often not very loving.
but, we can learn loving power, how to lean in, ask very directly for what we want, work together and teach our partners to deliver to US
we deserve to have anger out of our relationships.
we deserve to be able to talk to each other.
we deserve to be united.
we deserve a good fucking life.
i love you.
you love me.
how are we going to make this work?
we can learn to get what we want by standing up for ourselves with love, cherishing our needs in the same breath.
do you know how to do it? i doubt it.
can you learn? easily
does it work? much better than what you're doing now.
come and learn how.
we can learn to get what we want by standing up for ourselves with love, cherishing our needs in the same breath.
when Partner B starts giving Partner A what they want, does Partner A usually swoon in their arms and say thank you, baby?
