We've all heard the advice before to "take it slow" so that we don't get hurt again. When a guy says this to you, or when you're thinking you need to do this with a new guy, it may seem sensible, but it's really not.
It's another form of manipulation and control. It's saying, "I haven't done the work to heal from my past relationship, and so I'm going to carry that into this relationship and I expect you to sensor yourself so that I'm not triggered, thank you very much."
In episode 42, we cover:
- What he really means by "let's take things slow"
- Why requesting to "take things slow" prevents the ability to create intimacy
- How to know if you're relationship is moving at a healthy speed
- What happy couples say about "taking things slow" and other "rules of dating"
- What to respond when he says "let's take things slow"
- How to be confident in knowing that it's time to stop dating the guy who wants to "take things slow" and walk away
- Updates on the transformations of the girls currently in the Back to YOU Academy
- Exactly what you can expect by signing up for the Back to YOU Academy
There are men out there looking for real relationships. Our problem is we don’t know when to stop talking to the guy that’s saying he wants to take it slow.
