Intellectualizing emotions and attempting to convey reasonable objectivity
Same here, and you’re at least more fluent about it
My take is that the intellectual brain development in childhood became the only reliable tool to make sense of the world and guard us against the perceived useless and often overwhelming emotions. It’s an effective defense mechanism that helped us survive the painful experiences. Grace requires patience, practice and tactful approach because we are rising above our own survival instincts. Self forgiveness is a good thing when we fall short from the ideal. 知行合一不容易.
I didn’t know you had such prolonged painful breakup with Henry... You have a beautiful soul, you will meet Mr. Right who can see and cherish that soul. Maybe it felt like the end of world then, but it will be one of many life experiences:)

This reminds me of a conversation I think we had about the book "The Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents"!
