I miss my ex: what am I really missing?

personal-relationships20 min intermediate2 completed

This session won't tell you that you shouldn't want a partner - it will help you understand what you've actually been looking for in one. The pull you feel toward certain people isn't random: it's pointing directly to an emotional need that already lives in you. By the end of this session, you'll have named that need and taken one concrete step toward meeting it yourself.

What You'll Learn

Identify the specific behaviors in past attractions that felt most magnetic, and name the values those behaviors express
Recognise the core emotional need - such as feeling seen, freedom to be themselves, curiosity and aliveness, or safety - that their strongest attractions have been pointing to
Understand that emotional needs are not created by a partner: they already exist within them, and have been accessible outside of relationships
Trace a specific moment when that core need was met independently, outside of a romantic connection
Commit to one concrete action this week to begin meeting that need for themselves

This Session is Perfect For

Adults who sense there is a pattern in who they fall for, but haven't yet connected it to their own unmet needs.
