Ep. 35 “Love or Trauma Bond?”
Nathan and Cristina discuss what it could look like if one person (or both people) evolve during their relationship and trauma bonds versus love bonds.
Trauma bond:
The relationship starts with instant attraction and irresistible chemistry
The connection is highly physical and sexual
The relationship cycles through extreme highs and lows
Important conversations are avoided
The relationship feels like an addiction that you’re powerless to quit
Love bond:
The relationship starts with attraction and curiosity that builds over time
The connection is physical, sexual, emotional and intellectual
The relationship is stable, predictable and based on mutual trust
Important conversations are the priority
The relationship feels like an honor, privilege and a choice
