Starting Sex Before the Bedroom – Achieving Closure After the Breakup – Attracting Authentic People

When does sex really start? Is it when you’re taking off your clothes?

Does it start when that heated kissing or “petting” begins? If you are emotionally connected, you already know when sex starts – way before you ever step into the bedroom.  If, however, you’re somewhat detached from your emotions, sex is probably, mainly a physical thing for you.

Regardless of where you are on the spectrum of sexual intelligence, this segment is all about how to build up to it the right way so that it is as enjoyable as it can be. The buildup, the trust, the vulnerability, the attentiveness, the receptiveness, and a whole lot more can make or break a great sexual encounter, let alone a healthy, happy sex life to begin with.

If you want the best sex life possible, make everything else except sex as healthy and happy as possible. Segment one of this episode is dedicated to sex (it’s clean, but still an adult subject matter, be advised!).

In segment two, I read a message from a woman who asks how to achieve closure and feel better after her boyfriend dumped her. He promised he would treat her right and stay with her but he didn’t keep that promise.

What do you do when someone doesn’t keep a commitment to you? Are romantic commitments supposed to last forever?

When they don’t last, how do you get to closure so you can move on with your life? It might be a tough lesson to learn that love isn’t enough and doesn’t override everything.

The last segment is all about authenticity and how you show up in the world even when you make a fool of yourself at a critical moment in time and life.
