"The best case scenario for a couple who is experiencing hysterical bonding is to work on the EMOTIONAL reconnection while the sexual connection is high."

Jeopardizing this suggestion is mistrust of a reset or actual change of heart that can occur.

Our skepticism and possible resentment can squander precious time to parley this temporary insanity to something helpful.

be aware of it in advance, and you may be able to take it at face value and benefit both of you.

mirrororchid: We've compared denier/refuser spouses to prison wardens. Dr. Psychmom has compared them to hostage takers and the unhappy spouse has Stockholm syndrome. Prisoners can't leave. Stockholm hostages don't because they want a good outcome for the captor. Sept 10, 2024 18:54:11 GMT -5

mirrororchid: Heard on a podcast: "Dating is where we present our best selves. Vulnerability is the opposite. Where we risk our partner knowing things that are imperfect. This is the way to forge the life partner bond." Sept 10, 2024 19:17:03 GMT -5
