Past trauma, like abandonment, the death of the person you love, the divorce of your parents, or childhood neglect can understandably lead one to give up on dating. As singer and actress Demi Lovato explains, experiencing trauma can make you build walls around your heart to protect yourself from further pain. It can make you hesitant to trust and be vulnerable in relationships. But I believe that through therapy, self reflection, and surrounding yourself with the right people, it's possible to break down those walls and find love again. Experiencing trauma can have a significant impact on one's ability to trust and form intimate connections. You may feel reluctant or guarded when it comes to love or dating. Not me. Every time you approached your family home, your body would tense up immediately, like your body knew it would need armor for the battleground you were about to walk into once you opened that door. At a young age, you promised yourself that you'd never let this happen to you. This is because past experiences hold significant weight on how you view dating. Whether it's a bad relationship, infidelity, or unrequited love, those experiences shape you. Maybe it doesn't feel like you're giving up on dating, but it feels like you're giving up the pain they brought. The fear of repeating past negative experiences can make it challenging to trust new people and can lead to heightened hypervigilance. Inactive.
