FOR THOSE WHO CAN’T STOP EMOTIONALLY WHORING THEMSELVES OUT

Apr 12

If you know what I mean when I say that, then this is for you…

Emotionally whoring yourself out is NOT the same thing as being vulnerable.

I can read a room. I can pick up on cues. I can connect with people. But for some reason (which I will address), I couldn’t stop myself from carelessly throwing my emotions at other people!

Why did I do that?

I was just trying to find someone who would accept me, take me, want me AFTER they knew all the worst things about me/my life.

Here’s the problem (in case it’s not overtly obvious), just like sexual promiscuity… emotional promiscuity DOES NOT FIND YOU LOVE.

And the other kicker, you will NEVER feel loved or accepted until you give it to yourself.

If you’re word vomiting all over your new love interests or early on in dating (or friendships), chances are you are asking them to answer questions you haven’t answered for yourself yet. And if you haven’t answered them, I would would venture to say you haven’t fully accepted your story or yourself. Am I right? I am.

Everyone’s life is unmapped and unpredictable (even for the accountants and most predictably predictable ones!).

Own your story as if you chose it.

Choose to love YOU for what you have walked through. Decide that you’re enough JUST because you’re breathing. Learn to make space in your life to get to know the REAL you. Practice listening to the DEEPEST parts of you–your inner voice, your intuition.

You are a mighty force. I know it because you’re a human. And humans were made to drudge through trenches, pick up the broken pieces, and walk through fire to be remolded.

You already are a masterpiece. If you can’t see it because you’re tangled in a cycle of promiscuity, remember all the power lies within YOU. You don’t have to live another promiscuous day in your life if you don’t want to. You choose.

Choose you.

XO,
