How Being a Hopeless Romantic is Actually a Love Addiction
Yes, being a hopeless romantic is a love addiction. Sure, that truth stings a little, but being on the other side of it will set you free.
I had to learn the hard way. At some point suffering and misery become a choice. When you do something once it’s an accident or an experiment. If you do it twice it becomes a conscious choice.
For me it was understanding that my addiction to smoking was the same as my addiction to being in a relationship. It’s the same self punishing cycle. One day you’re telling yourself you’re enjoying it, the next day you’re in piles of regret, shame, confusion and frustration.
So how do you go from HOPELESS to HOPEFUL romantic? How can you get addicted to the good, healthy stuff?Well that’s the million dollar question.
That’s what led me to becoming a heart centered life coach.
The inner game and deep self work isn’t easy, but the result is freedom. The core problem is denial and self sabotage. The antidote is self love and acceptance. Affirming your strengths and accepting your weaknesses.
Your past may have taught you codependent survival strategies, but once you learn to have kindness and compassion for yourself, your capacity to love will overflow into all of your relationships and other aspects of life. THEN you’ll start receiving more of the kind of love you’re looking for.
