i have been thinking a lot lately about how i make decisions about my romantic life. this is complicated by the fact that i have a hard time feeling my emotions as they happen, especially when subtle distinctions are important, like the difference between the beginnings of a long term sustainable love and something that can be fun for a while but won't last very long. i am tired of trying to do relationships the "normal" way, or even the normal for polyamory way. just imagining doing it makes me physically tired.

Feels and thinking about feels

I used to be just like that. One of the more effective thing was naming my emotions during meditation. Every time a thought wandered across my mind, I would name the emotion behind it. I need to start writing them down, when I meditate, though. Apparently some people can come to spontaneous realizations about the sources of their emotions that way.
