  • 468: How to Meet Unmet Needs

    468: How to Meet Unmet Needs
    Nov 30 2024
    Welcome Foreplayers to another great episode in the 'School of Love.' We are staying with the emotional pursuer in this episode and asking them to reach deep. All to get the Hollywood ending you've dreamed about as the pursuer...getting your emotional needs met. The pursuer has discovered the unmet need below the protective move which is often anger or criticism and now it's their turn to share it with their re-engaged withdrawer. Our hosts provide a great role play where they not only identify the need but ask their partner for help here. This may sound like, "I feel unimportant here and I want to feel really important to you. Can you help me here?" These are the conversations that create secure relationships. If the negative cycle is the clashing of unmet needs then the positive cycle is unmet needs met. As you work towards this you will find that this space is much more organic, fulfilling and natural than the previous negative cycle. As Laurie says, "the molecules just all come together!" Therapists, if you're wanting to help your clients gain more security in their sexual relationship make sure you join us in Nashville in January for our next training.

    467: Staying Focused With Pursuer Vulnerability
    Nov 22 2024
    Welcome Foreplay listeners! Today's episode is another in our 'School of Love' series that we are close to completing. We are talking today about how to stay and keep focused on the pursuing partner as they express their vulnerability. Listen in as George and Laurie breakdown the steps a couple needs to have completed before getting to this point and how both partners can stay focused on the pursuer's pain. This is a place where withdrawers are now able to give their pursuing partner love that they never received before. This can be scary territory for both but this is also the place where a new, positive and secure cycle is created. The key here is responsiveness. Focus on ways to respond to your partner's pain that helps them feel seen, heard and understood. These are key attachment needs that are important to us ALL.
