Julie Norris:  “I can’t even begin to describe the difference having a romantic partner who is in it, on it and with it most of the time, as opposed to occasionally. If you are tolerated or someone has to “put in time” with you to satisfy basic needs, this should not be the norm, although I see it all around me. Also, if you are put on a pedestal sometimes and dragged through emotional dirt the rest of the time, this is also not normal. I’m having a person revolution in relating because I finally have someone who totally gets it and it is liberating for both of us! We are both, finally, in a wholesome, clear communicating, equality oriented relationship. We enjoy being called out in efforts to keep us growing into the best versions of ourselves, but we do it with respect and compassion. It’s liberating and refreshing.” Julie Norris wrote on Facebook.   I completely agree about meeting basic needs and being dragged thru emotional dirt. I only had one relationship like that. It was an eye opener. Definitely call each other out in loving ways. Keeping open lines of communication is crucial. A loving, conscious partner can’t find you if you’re vibing with an unconscious one you are afraid to leave thinking they are the only one left in the world. I guarantee you they are not.
