Ep. #56: Late Blooming Break-Ups w/Samantha Fox

In this episode, Robin discusses the in’s and out’s of relational compatibility, emotional EQ, timing, chemistry and of course, ‘curiosity’ with friend, colleague and Lesbian Curiosity Coach herself, Samantah Fox.In this episode you will hear and learn about . . .Figuring out chemistry: even with video-chatting, and audio-texting constantly, ‘chemistry’ may be evident for some, and not for others; everyone processes at their own pace and in their own way.The importance of understanding each other’s ‘intentions’ for meeting, AND, being open and honest about your wants, needs, intentions and expectations. The importance of gaining CLARITY!The importance of understanding your own “triggers” and what makes you put your guard-up and what you can do to avoid misunderstandings and miscommunications.The importance of REALLY recognizing when you and another person are misaligned. It is SO common, (and SO unhealthy) for us to, (all along the course of getting to know someone), hope and dream for ‘her’ and for ‘things’ to be a certain way, when they really aren’t.The necessity of self-assessment and self-awareness in order to figure out what you want and need in a relationship; AND, be open to the possibility that those things you think you need and want may change and evolve.How much it matters that two people are, (as much as possible), in very similar points in their lives as they try to enter into a relationship with one another, (i.,e., just divorcing, the messy middle, new to dating, been out for several years, in an open marriage, not out to anyone yet, etc.).No matter where you are in the “Coming Out Late” journey, the necessity of learning who you are; being rigorously honest with yourself and others.Wanna support our “Coming Out Late” podcast?
