Jeez thanks for sharing this - you open yourself to ridicule being this vulnerable. There are many of us experiencers who keep it secret our whole lives. Culture is slowly accepting this narrative, but it's slow. I've only had experiences with Mantis beings. They told me they control human perception. They make us see whatever they like to hide themselves. That human minds have been 'tweaked' to enable easy control, but there are some humans they steer clear of that their perception 'hijacks' do not work on. Also that there should be no fear because our consciousness cannot be touched by Others, if we are unwilling. They told me they love humans for our wonder, our suprise, our lack of telepathy. We cannot connect to each other directly, so our interactions are unique. We are a 'voice species' so we can experience more fully without telepathy. Anywho I draw no conclusions from this, just some strange perceptions of mine ☺️ The terror involved initially has really faded with time

This is very astute and self aware. Theres a famous saying that is relevant here 'If a business supplies something for free, your data, attention & engagement is the charge' in other words those business' are using YOU for revenue. Your attention is your most powerful asset. Beneath this you are unveiling all the insidious ways culture tries to embed into you beliefs that you need to be a certain 'way'. No. You just need to be a based motherfucker - provided you do no harm to others of course. A compassionate based motherfucker 😜 Annnnnnd this is just my opinion, so here you see, I am complicit with point No.1 !!! Was this necessary? Maybe not. My aim was to make you laugh and feel empowered on your inner path, free of these veils 💜

I actually cannot stop laughing

It sounds like a dopamine purge! Although I know processes like this do so, so much more. How are you feeling a few days out? Has the clarity and joy remained?

To be clear - I did mean the challenge that is life in general. As a point of unity, so we feel less alone in overcoming challenges. Also to empower as I really believe in humans But I can see how it can be misread. Edited the post for clarity. And your points are correct. @Rezo gelenidze - I hope you don't take what I wrote to imply hopelessness, as life does change and can get easier.

It would be a good one, as many people face the issue. But it requires vulnerability - and you are in a precarious situation with that. I do not envy you, as personal experiences can be used against you. Most especially when you share vulnerable experiences. Also most especially when harpies with chains be swinging in your forum spaces

I'm in the same boat - wading through shit like molasses grinding away. It doesn't always get easier, it certainly can - but I can tell you - you get stronger. <3 *edited for clarity*

This man, this - someone needs to walk in swinging a 36" chain and wup the reality back into them!

My opinion also.

It is possible. To my experience - you cannot have any jealousy or possessiveness in your character as a woman to have a relationship like that. And that is a rare quality in most people. There needs to be absolute transparency and clear rules and boundaries. From the man's perspective - its a lot - to be so attentive to 2 women's emotional needs. But it can work when the mans sexual needs are satisfied by the novelty and variety in his sex life, as he can be so gratified he has boundless love, care & energy to pass back to the women.

Do you think the wife could possibly be brainwashing and gaslighting herself here, as evidenced by her perpetual need to 'work through accepting' the situation? Her initial reaction was negative to the situation. I do acknowledge you prioritise her choice as being sovereign and willing. Her need to 'work through' acceptance displays some friction and negativity. I've been in open relationships and they were effortless and in no way did I need to experience anything she has. This negativity she experiences continually is contradicting everything. It speaks to it being unconscious.

It's a challenging topic and thought provoking topic. Even more challenging to be aware of the behaviour judgements we make when assessing.

Tasty bias morsels I do see

I implore anyone in this conversation to look into the general internets reaction. It's just as interesting & varied as the topic and dynamics itself! Stealth edit - @Leo Gura Sly dog with the above! I C wut u did thar

True true. As is true also for your analysis

Yes, of course - regarding the last line. As I am aware that my assumptions are just my reading. I should perhaps, ah! Rephrase this slightly - that the cons outweighed the benefits, in her eyes. I say this as she reads to me as being in profound pain. More accurate?

It read to me like - the wife didn't have strong boundaries to begin with. Perhaps some trauma in her past, incorrect love shown to her in infancy. He was getting all the benefits, while never having to compromise. She was struggling between wanting to be with him, and her realisation that he was unable to provide the love she wanted. For the wife in this scenario - she wasn't getting any benefits (from her perspective) - because the only thing she placed value on is love and soul communion to her alone. Monogamous love. Having healed myself from bad boundaries, when you have them, you don't even know what you want. You can't advocate for yourself because you don't know who that 'self' is, and what it wants and needs. This is rooted in past trauma - you weren't shown the way to take proper care of your needs as a child, as your parents didn't know how to love you in the way that taught self agency. It's very, very difficult to understand this cycle of being trapped in abuse unless you have experienced it. This is why some people who haven't experienced it do not understand - leading to the question 'Why not just leave?' As this is actually the most logical solution. Like experiencing awakening, or having an orgasm. You really have to have personally experienced boundary issues and healed from them to instantly see it in others. So the lesson here is indeed that she needed to leave, and advocate for herself. I have compassion for her and could never judge her, as she is a wounded soul. She is walking along bleeding through her life, and is doomed to remain in this cycle, unless she learns the lesson to advocate for herself. None of this means she deserves any of this suffering. It just is what it is. C'est la vie

This is an excellent point - and one Leo himself emphasises. Not blinding following and really probing for insight for ones self.

Haha you would think so! But some peoples definition of art is so busted - they reduce it to this very narrow specific thing. For example - the thumbnails for your videos. Time has been spent, clearly (well it appears to me), in framing, selecting and ensuring there is a narrative fit to the content being presented. But if you were to ask the local gallery owner I know - he would think a video thumbnail was garbage

Shit, how arrogant of me - I do graciously apologise for that 🙏 I think I was getting at the fact it is a weakness of mine to not listen to words when I am presented with body language to read. But no excuse for me being a shithead

I read it totally different! But I didn't listen to the words as much as surgically dissected body language, tone and expression. As I am want to do... But that is because I don't trust peoples words as much as emotion, action and expression.

The possibility exists their bodies and minds are more resilient, as each person experiences external stress differently. For example, I can deal with a large amount of stress. I have always had this capacity. I can juggle multiple moving systems and tasks and remain calm. My sister however, when she has attempted to stand in for me at work, or take on a task, cannot function. She will experience panic attacks, pass out. Hyperventilate etc. This is an acute example, of course. Truly, bodies are just very strange and we are all very different. This is why I also added I cannot speak for the ladies individual physiology/psychology.

While I cannot speak of her specific case - excessive stress is well known to shut down women's reproductive systems. If the stress is chronic it appears as 'Chronic Anovulation'

We are in agreement. Art is a rather serious subject for me. It has been the main theme and driving force throughout my life. I see art in everything. But I respect most arts ability to marry function & beauty. Art is also a process & a product. Big topic.
