Spider Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 How's things? So I'm kinda new here. I was introduced to Stefan by an ex of mine who is also a member here and I've been getting more and more hooked on the things he has to say. My love of philosophy rejoices! Ahem, at any rate. To quote my profile as to why I joined here. I would like the opportunity to interact with Stefan and the community that has sprung up around him. I have numerous questions on how I can deal with the abuse of my childhood so that I can become personally empowered. One of my greatest fears is carrying on the traits of my extremely abusive parents, who are arguably narcissists and stunted my emotional growth as a person. As a result I have major abandonment issues, problems with motivation, assertiveness and confrontation.In addition, I find a lot of Stefan's perspectives on everyday misconceptions to be very insightful. Since (recently) listening to his podcasts and call in shows I've started to question some of my own beliefs and would love the opportunity to learn more. I strongly agree with his views on gentle parenting and would love to have children with the right partner one day; IF I can do so properly. However, I'm already 30 and that window is rapidly closing. Still, I feel I would be happy being childless as well. Ultimately, my goal is to find a stable life partner, who is also polyamorous. I need to have a very strong sense of what I want in life for that to happen however, and I'm asking for help along the way. If you're interested in hearing more about my life story, perhaps I'll make another thread, or maybe I can share here. Not sure how you guys like to operate here; every community is different.
