Father Wounds: Can A Man Be Submissive If He Had An Abusive Father?

If a man is out with his friends, he can typically be easy-going and happy to go along with whatever another person wants to do. He is then going to go along to get along and he will rarely assert himself. It might not be much different when he is at work, as he could be just as compliant and seldom stand up for himself. And, when it comes to what he does for a living, this could be something that he more or less fell into as opposed to something that he consciously chose to do. The Same Story

Emotional Neglect: From One Generation To Another

When it comes to what one generation passes onto the next, genetics are at the forefront. Some experts say that whatever one generation has, the next are certain to have the same. However, others, through their understanding of epigenetics, have said that their needs to be a trigger in order for anyone’s DNA to have an effect. And this trigger could be an exte al trigger, so environmental, or an internal trigger and how one feels or thinks for instance. What doesn’t receive as much exposure as this, is how emotional neglect can be passed on from one generation to another.

Child Abuse: Can Someone Feel Ashamed Of Their Body If They Were Abused As A Child?

Although someone’s body is part of them and is, therefore, not something that they can get rid of, it doesn’t mean that they have embraced it. As a result of this, they may overlook this part of them or they could do just about everything that they can to change it. What this will illustrate is that they don’t feel comfortable with this part of themselves and are unable to accept it. And, as this is a big part of who they are, it is naturally going to cause them problems. The First Experience

Relationships: Why Are Some Men Attracted To Unavailable Women?

Even though a man may have the desire to be in an intimate relationship with a woman, he may continually end up with women who are not available. Through having been with a number of women who are like this, he may find that this area of his life causes him to experience a fair amount of frustration. If he was to look back on his life, he may see what this is something that has been going on for a number of years, or it could have been going on for a few decades. No matter how long it has been going on for, he is most likely going to want this area of his life to change before long.

Boundaries: Can Someone End Up Being Walked Over If They Don't Feel Safe In Their Body?

If someone is in a position where they find it hard to stand their ground and to pay attention to their needs and feelings, they could come to believe that they need to become more assertive. As a result of this, they could end up taking part in some kind of assertiveness training. The Next Step Through taking this approach, one may find that it is only a matter of time before their life changes. What could be classed as a ‘behavioural approach’, will have been exactly what was required.

False Self: Why Would A Man Have The Need To Come Across As Extremely Masculine?

Based on how a man comes across, he might appear to have more in common with a superhero than a human being. The reason for this is that he might not just be somewhat masculine, he could be exceptionally masculine. Due to this, it might not matter where he is or who he is with, as he could stand out. There is going to be how he looks and how he behaves, with both of these elements playing a key part in the image that he projects. The First Part

Critical Thinking: Can Someone's Negative Energy Have A Destructive Effect On The Planet?

For a little while now, a lot has been said about the planet and how it is not in a good way. On one side, there is a focus on what is going on with the weather, and on the other, there is a focus on what is happening on the ground. And although the media has spoken about the weather for a very long time, it appears to be spending more time talking about what is happening to the earth. One of the ways that this is taking place is by looking at all of the plastic that is in the ocean. Its Everywhere

Depression: Can Feeling Helpless Cause Someone To Be Depressed?

There can be times when someone’s life will go how they want it to and times when it won’t. It could be said that this is simply part of life, and not something that can be changed. However, although this is the case, it is going to be down to one to decide how they will respond when it doesn’t go how they want it to. It has been said that while one can’t control what happens to them, they can control how they respond. It’s Clear

Disrespect: Do Some People’s Childhoods Set Them Up To Have A Low Tolerance For Disrespect?

When someone is shown respect, they are likely to respond in a certain way, whereas, if they are not respected, they are likely to respond in another way. However, this is not to say that everyone feels they deserve the same level of respect. But when someone doesn’t get the level of respect they feel they deserve, it can end up having a negative effect on them. And the type of effect it has will depend on how they interpret to what happens.

Internet Dating: Should Someone Objectify Their Body When They Use Internet Dating?

When one is attracted to someone in the real world, it can be due to a number of different factors. On one hand, how they look could play a part, and on the other hand, it could be the result of how one feels in their presence. There is also the chance that how one feels in the other persons presence will be influenced by how they look. What this shows is that there is unlikely to be just one thing and that a number of different factors can be involved. Online

Although someone will have both a head and a body and will, therefore, experience both thoughts and feelings, it doesn’t mean that they will be able to relate to this. In general, they could live up top and only be aware of their thoughts and perhaps different sensations. They are then going to look like a whole human being but they won’t operate like one. By being this way, it is likely to be a challenge for them to feel connected to life and others and to even feel alive. Back To the Self

Emotional Needs: Can Another Person Fulfil Our Emotional Needs?

When one looks for a relationship, there are emotional needs that one is looking for another person to fulfil within them. These needs can be conscious and known, and they can be unconscious and unknown. And some of these needs will be possible for another person to fulfil and meet and some of these needs will not be. Emotional Needs The needs that I am talking about include: validation, acceptance, attention and approval. On the surface these needs can appear to be healthy and functional.

Although human beings are often seen as being independent, it doesn’t mean that this is actually the case. Now, this is not to say that they don’t have their own life to lead; what it comes down to is that everyone is connected. Therefore, although everyone has their own physical body, this is not going to stop them from being affected by the people around them. This is why it is often said that it is important for someone to be careful when it comes to who they let into their life. Food

Intimacy: Can A Man Be Out Of Touch With His Need For Intimacy He Had An Unavailable Mother?

If a man were to take a step back and reflect on his life, what he could find is that he generally acts as though he doesn’t have the need to connect to a woman. As a result of this, a number of his needs are typically not going to be met. So, his need to be seen and heard by a woman, experience affection, and have sex, among other things, is seldom going to be met. Still, he might see that he doesn’t consciously choose to ignore these needs. Missing Out

The Mirror: Is Someone’s Outer World A Reflection Of Their Inner World?

One thing that someone’s ego-mind will do is allow them to have their own experience on this planet. As a result of this, it is possible for them to fulfil their own purpose or mission whilst they are here. In other words, this part of them creates the impression that they are separate from everyone and everything. So, although this allows them to have their own reality, it also leads to a sense of aloneness. The Solution

Due to this, they might not need to think too far back to remember when they last lost control and did something that they now regret. During this time, it could be as if something took control of them and there was nothing that they could do about it. All Area

Humans Beings Have Been Conditioned To Be Submissive

From a very young age most of us were taught to respect authority; it started with our parents, then went onto include our teachers, and continued with the people we worked for. There will also have been the government, the media, and there might have even been different religious leaders. Now, I don’t believe that there is anything wrong with authority figures per se, as we all need to be guided from time to time.
