She’s “Too Much”, But Is She Really?

The sensitive woman
The emotional
The feisty

Parading with passion
Lushing with life
She’ll fuck your brains out
She’ll bite your head off

But in her fire
You might get burnt

I’ve always had a weak spot for the full-blood feminine women
But too often, I walled off when she became ‘too much’

And still…
What was the attraction
That pulled me in?

It is this…

We, men, yearn to feel alive
And to feel alive, we need to feel
To touch the depth of our emotional world

But instead of facing it directly
We seek it through her

Not just for love, sex, or connection
To most of us, our women are our emotional muses
Proxies into their own inner world

We crave women who feel deeply
Who embody sensitivity, rawness and wildness
Who move through life with intuition and flow

We drink it in
When we feel numb

We devour her energy
When we feel dead inside

But the moment she spills over…
We spill over

She’s “too much”
Means WE feel too much
Overwhelmed
Confronted

And so we shut down
Suppress
Shame
And wall off

Not because we do not want it
But because we do not know how to hold it
Because we have never learned to hold it in ourselves

This lack of ownership of our inner world
Becomes a push and pull

A constant shift between connection and disconnection
And it will drive our relationships into the ground
Until we take ownership of our full selves

Want to feel more alive?
Then start by living your emotions
Instead of chasing them in her

Do you want deeper love?
Learn to hold your own inner world
Before asking her to do it for you

Do you want true strength?
Step fully into the depths of your own being
Only then will you be able to carry her as well

Until you do
You will keep running in circles around your partner

So stop chasing that life energy outside yourself
It has been waiting for you to claim yourself

All this time

Because your fear & suppression of feminine emotions
Is actually…
Fear of your truest self

In service of the betterment of men,
