What are your emotional needs from your husband or others in your life?
It is not just about what your emotional needs from your husband are. One of the most important factors that hold a marriage or other relationship together are honoring and meeting each other’s needs, while at the same time, meeting your own requirements.

We can receive from our partner, what it is we need and desire, however, we must be willing to have those needs and desires met in ourselves first in order to avoid unhealthy co-dependency, illicit affairs and to create awareness of our wholeness.

We are already whole beings, and it is a false belief that another person will make us whole. Our happiness, abundance, well being and peace do not originate outside of ourselves. This incorrect belief may originate from having been abused as a child , or from a life time long ago, and can lead to emotionally abusive relationships, for what you believe one can do for you can also turn drastically into what one can do to you.

If you are constantly focused on your husband meeting your emotional needs, you may be avoiding an opportunity for self-growth. Take a look at the list to the left of emotional needs and pick about five of which seem most important to you. Then read more about what you can do..

Do you trust in yourself to meet your needs? Are you giving yourself any of these or are you demanding your partner provide you them for you? If you are not attending to your own provisions, stop trying to get them met by your husband, partner, boyfriend, or anyone else in your life that you are in relationship with. No one else is responsible for your happiness or your depression. Stop holding them accountable for your feelings of betrayal and abandonment. When you begin to love, honor and attend to yourself, you are also becoming more emotionally mature and emotionally competent. Start meeting them yourself, for you!

You cannot create the relationship of your dreams if you are not whole. You will perceive lack and thusly be feel emotionally impoverished and quite distressed. This illusion of lack brings about more pain and stress in your life, just the opposite of the loving joy you dream about. You will be miserable if you are always looking to someone else to meet your emotional needs, without you being willing to attend to your own wants. You must take back your power and give yourself all that you need to feel loved and whole.

If you are having difficulty with this process, I can gently and lovingly lead you away from this unhealthy behavior pattern, and lead you toward self-empowerment and self-love. Together we can create the relationship of your dreams, full of great joy and love where you are no longer dependent upon your emotional needs being met by your husband or any one else!
