Is your love life Hot Hot Hot, Cold Cold Cold? Are you stuck with emptiness with your partner today? Clients shared with me that they aren’t giving up on better communication, fun in the bedroom, and more intellectual sparks, but they are burning down.
It seems the most challenging situation is getting yourself out the door to connect if you are single or married, Boomer or younger, you are tired of initiating or gearing up and dressing beyond your sweats.
What to do?
I remember a wonderful woman shared with me that the pizza guy rang her home bell by mistake because she would never let herself order pizza. He was filling in for a sick friend. Yes, you got it, they went out and are still dating.
Oh if it could be that easy!
Do you think it can be easy? Are you frustrated and exhausted? Do you just want a little bit of a change around partnering or an overhaul?
Summer is more playful. Would you call a guy or only have him call you?
It is time to revisit who you are and who you aren’t and then, believe it or not, PULL YOURSELF UP, after you refresh, and begin with a beginner’s heart. Nothing to lose. Replaying the bummer stories is just that, replay.
You aren’t happy in the replay so get some new stories, don’t you think?
You can always leave if you go somewhere solo and it just isn’t working for you. I know you don’t want to change your clothes and drive far so just pick one night to pull yourself up and get out that door.
Share with us what came up for you when you got out the door or never got beyond the sofa. We all have flat days and uplifting moments.
Have fun,
Natalie
