IN-TO-ME-TO-SEE
True intimacy begins with the use of “I “statements:
I feel…
I need…
I am…
I want…
I like…
I don’t like…
I can’t stand…
I love…
But that’s just one part of true intimacy…
The other part is what follows the “I“statement…
……..raw honesty
The last part is how it’s received by the one who its shared with…
………listening without judgment in a safe, comforting and loving space
True intimacy is normally difficult…
……..it is even harder for survivors
Intimacy is just that …sharing to let someone IN-TO-ME-TO-SEE
What has helped you to let someone in to see you?
