The Importance of Self-Relationship for Intimacy
Being at peace with oneself is crucial for forming intimate relationships. When individuals rely on others for validation or to feel okay about themselves, it creates a foundation for failure in intimacy. This dependence often leads to unhealthy dynamics where one's sense of self is extracted from their partner, causing conflict and dissatisfaction. Therefore, working on one’s relationship with oneself is essential for deeper intimacy and connection with others.
