Are You Really Grieving Him...Or Who You Wish He'd Been?
Listen now
Description
“He was everything I’ve ever wanted. How am I supposed to get over him?” Uh…you mean the guy you dated for two weeks, tops? Yeah…we need to chat about this, babe. Look, I’m not going to tell you that the timeframe of a relationship determines its emotional impact. It doesn’t. What I AM going to tell you (because I’ve had to tell myself a million f*****g times over) is that there’s no way in hell you know this man well enough to say he’s “the one” after two f*****g weeks. “But we had so much fun together!” You went out for cocktails. Of course you had fun. I could have fun with a f*****g broom if it took me out for drinks. “But we had such great chemistry!” Contrary to popular belief, chemistry ain’t rare, babe. And telling yourself that story is going to get you into a heap of shit faster than you can say “the one that got away.” You’re allowed to grieve the relationship you THOUGHT you were going to have. But if you’re sitting around pining after a man you only knew for a couple weeks…hit play, girl. It’’s time for a reality check.    WORK WITH MICHELLE:  Join THE CONNECTED WOMAN, a shadow-work course for women who want to go from feeling anxious AF about their love lives to feeling confident, secure and having unfuckwithable self-worth: https://michellepanning.com/the-connected-woman Join The EXPERIENCE, a year-long mentorship for the woman who wants to play in the frequency of big love, epic sex and mind-blowing relationships with men…and herself: https://michellepanning.com/the-experience  Ready to stop obsessing over texts, chasing unavailable men, and feeling like you’re always one step away from being abandoned?

I have a complicated relationship with vulnerability. When I first started this work, I couldn’t even say the f*cking WORD. And even though I’ve gotten so much better about it…it’s still terrifying. I don’t want people to see me as less than perfect. I don’t want them to see me struggle....
