That, is NOT a good “foundation” at all, as fear is easily shaken down, and it crumbles and breaks too effortlessly, something as minute as an ANGRY word, or a BAD look, can BREAK it all down!
A relationship that’s built on fear, it’d started off tilted, and, because one of you became willing, to allow the other, to GET you to do things that you don’t want to, by pressure, by coercion, or by any sort of violence, you’d become, enabling in your own abuse.
and no, you’re still NOT the hand that controlled these “puppets”…NOT my picture!
And once you get used to this way of interacting with someone, you don’t even realize, that this method of interacting is harming you BOTH, you, more so than the other individual, because, you are, the WEAKER link! A relationship that’s built on fear, it will be, NEXT to impossible, for this relationship to turn itself around, that’s for sure.
Because the two of you are already, USED to this mode of interacting, with either you, or the other person, controlling EVERYTHING that the two of you experience together…
A relationship that’s built on fear, might as well, just, set it all ablaze, and abandon it, but, you can’t, because you’re, still, in love, or at least you believe it’s L-O-V-E, and, the thought of abandoning this “love” (uh, yeah RIGHT!) that’s took you so long to establish, well, it just, don’t feel right, does it???
