[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]May I ask what defines emotional intimacy? Genuinely curious because I have been married to someone who seems genetically predisposed to only being interested in what interests him, which includes his family (my family seems non-existent). His parents are similar in the lack of interest in what other people do for a living, their families, their goals, their dreams. All conversations revolve around themselves or are fluffy pleasant talk. This emotional intimacy - what if it's only a one way street?[/quote] Then you stop giving so much of yourself to him. He can’t read the room, nor can his parents. Nothing will change because they likely never cared in the first place. It’s a hard lesson to learn - people like this ultimately don’t give a hoot about anyone else, and you can’t make them. Take care of yourself, lower your expectations, and mentally flake out of this BS situation you are in.[/quote]
