Manage episode 487197152 series 2883763
In this episode we'll discuss the concept of relational bypassing, a pattern where individuals avoid emotional pain in relationships, particularly after infidelity. This behavior can hinder intimacy and healing, so there is a real importance of emotional presence and truth in rebuilding the trust.
Key Takeaways:
- Relational bypassing can kill intimacy in relationships.
- Fixing without hearing leads to disconnection.
- Emotional shortcutting delays healing.
- What we resist stays stuck; what we feel can move.
- Both partners in infidelity need to process their emotions.
- Avoidance strategies prevent real connection.
- Emotional presence is crucial for rebuilding trust.
- Truth must come from a real place for healing.
- Controlling the narrative can be a form of bypassing.
- Choosing connection over comfort fosters intimacy.
