Hi Ladies! I've been accused of being too aloof in relationships. It's true too! I think several factors contribute to this. My parents were not very affectionate growing up, and my work requires me to do boring/tedious tasks all day. As a result, I feel drained at the end of the day. Weekends are my time to unwind and recharge, and lately, it has been hard to really enjoy life as much because my job is becoming more demanding and taking up a lot of mental space. I find myself feeling detached from my emotions, and I'm afraid this will affect my relationships as it has in the past.
Some strategies for dealing with it that I think may work are: 1) getting a different job that isn't so draining and boring, and 2) getting involved in social events that get me excited and give me a change of pace from my usual daily routine.
Any other suggestions? Men like it when we're happy and busy. They can also tell when we're not head over heels in love- I do feel love but my life right now is structured in a way that it's hard to connect with those loving feelings sometimes so I can share them with others. Anyone understand what I mean and have any idea how to fix this? (I feel like Tara on LHHNY- she said she's tired a lot which affects her relationship with Peter meanwhile Amina is happy and free, and he married her- without the job stress, I'd feel A LOT happier, freer, and in touch with my emotions).
