85: Why your partner is shutting down, doesn’t want to hear you and what you can do about it

Why your partner is shutting down and doesn’t wanna hear what you have to say and what you can do about it... For years my partner and I triggered each other, I would get super reactive and fired up and he would shut down and ignore everything I had to say. I would get deeply upset and go into a spiral of negative thought patterns and buying into stories and beliefs that kept me in the same old loop. It felt like we were playing out this same pattern for years and I often wondered why no matter how many conversations we had things never changed. I began to question the relationship and whether or not he was the one. I was deeply afraid to step fully into this relationship and give it my all, I was too stuck in my own stories and fears. Eventually I got to the point where something had to change, I had had enough and decided to do something about it. I delved into the deeper layers and began to address the deeper wounds at play and found new ways to approach the situation.  As I learned to meet my partner from my heart with compassion, tenderness, and vulnerability, everything began to change and we became closer and closer. I began to take RADICAL self-responsibility and take into account how he was feeling and what was coming up for him in those situations and together we worked together to find resolution and heal the resentment and hurt. We are now more connected than ever and I love supporting others on this journey of coming home to themselves, expressing themselves with confidence, getting their needs met, and deepening their connection with their partner.
