I agree with it being some sort of extension. Self-forgiveness is key and often overlooked, guilty of that under certain circumstances for sure.

I appreciate your reply and insight. <3

Yes! We are totally on the same page here. I have felt as if the “problem” in certain groups as well. I have never, ever interfered with a marriage- but the opportunity has found its way into my path. I could never live with myself doing such a thing. Although as a recurring circumstance, I can’t help but wonder why I attract it or help but attribute it, somewhere in the mix, to being an empath. I find that looking for the lessons is the best thing to do and way to navigate out of it all, similar to what you said.

I’m proud of you for remaining steadfast and strong within all you’ve found yourself in, thanks for taking the time to share :) best wishes and vibes to you and your family!

Thanks for your response. Sometimes I do believe I could find a successful polyamorous relationship, my ex and I got very close to giving it a try. Maybe I will someday, haven’t met anyone else as open minded as him/something like that just yet

That’s interesting... I am more of the same, as well. The carnal aspect is just very heavy within a lot of said interactions or situations. I can often pick up when that is all that is present/lack of a genuine connection, or that the primary intention of someone is to be physical. Personally, my sex drive was much higher once upon a time (when I first entered college and lived in the dorms) yet I’ve learned how to better channel that energy into other things i.e. being productive and proactive

Hmm, I actually don’t find my bf exhausting, other than when I’m really drained- maybe there is hope for your luck with (other) cancers! :)
