Can a person ever love another when all they do is love themselves?
Do they cause you to feel you're simply there for them and their needs and never really there for yours?
Have you ever felt like a replacement piece in a dinner setting although quite clearly the pattern doesn't match and never will.
Are you hidden and kept secret from parents, family and friends?
Is there an absence of you in any photos being displayed?
Do you explain what you need and want from the other and the relationship, however your requests and cries clearly go unanswered without care or concern?
Are you belittled, dis-empowered and berated with snide remarks?
Is intimacy and sensuality lacking, and the occasion when it happens it's done for their benefit, yet made out it's for the benefit of you, almost like some reward for being good?
Whether this be a twisted or simply unloving relationship, one of many assortments in life's merry land of relationships I'm sure, it's possibly advisable to abandon this relationship if it's doing you harm.
Some people are just never really present with another. Here begins the Separation or in actual fact, there may never have been a deep and meaningful connection or attachment in the first place.
If you are the relationship type of person and you encounter a person like this, it's possibly wise to get out of the relationship as inevitably as day follows night you will be starved of affection and all the goodness you have in your soul, sucking your love dry when instead it should flourish.
Don't feel or be like a male black widow spider being eaten by its female counterpart.1
You do have a choice and the power to break free seeking a more compatible and pleasurable mix. When two hearts aren't joined in a union of pure togetherness, is it a love that can survive or simply perish?
Have a deep look within yourself and make the necessary decisions for something better.
Good luck!
With love, kindness and peace
Michael
