Free to Love

HEY GIRL HEY!

A fear of love can express itself in many different ways. You might sit at home on Saturday nights and refuse to let your friends set you up. You may have an emotional trigger. On the other hand, you might participate on a dozen dating platforms and meet someone for coffee at least three times a week. While these may sound like two opposite extremes, the outcomes are usually the same. Your defenses keep you from developing an intimate relationship. Before you can change, it’s important to be aware of how you sabotage your romantic life. Find out what’s keeping you from falling in love and be intentional about renewing your mind .

2. Accept your Feelings. A fear of love often involves trying to avoid strong emotions. Remember that running away from sadness also means missing out on joy.
3. Boost your confidence. Learning to live with strong emotions will make you more resilient Each time you put yourself in situations that make you anxious, you see proof that you can deal with them successfully.
