- | + | **REAL RELATIONSHIPS ARE NOT BUILT ON LUST – THEY ARE BUILT ON TRUST** | |
- | Later? It can become something deeper. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Lust is fast and chaotic, like a match in a dry forest – exciting but fragile. Long-term intimacy, when nurtured, is like ringing a heavy old bell – it echoes across your life. | + | |

- | Most couples never learn how to build tension *within* trust. They get lost in logistics, routines, parenting, baggage. They assume the spark is gone. Some chase new lust instead of learning to create polarity inside their own relationship. | + | |

+ | * You're not connecting with the **real person** — you're connecting with the *idea* of them. | ||
+ | * Don't meet or connect in a club or a bar. | ||
+ | * Your brain is wired for short-term rewards. | ||
+ | * For a meaningful connection, meet at a coffee shop or a park. IN THE DAY. | ||
+ | * Early sex feels explosive, like a match in a dry forest — fast, exciting, but fragile. | ||
+ | * Long-term intimacy, when nurtured, is like neutrinos moving through matter — silent, unstoppable, | ||
+ | * You can’t rely on lust to build a connection — you must **build** something deeper through **presence**, **trust**, **honour** | ||
+ | * Most couples never learn how to **build tension inside trust** — they drift into routine, parenting, stress, and lose polarity. | ||
+ | * When the spark fades, they either give up or chase someone new — mistaking lust for connection. | ||
+ | * Real intimacy comes from: | ||
+ | * Showing up with **presence**, | ||
+ | * Holding onto **difference**, | ||
+ | * Creating **tension without conflict**, | ||
+ | * Feeling **safe but still magnetically pulled** to each other. | ||
+ | * Lust is imagined — **real desire is built**. | ||
+ | * Presence fades, | ||
+ | * You can’t recreate “new, | ||
+ | * When both people hold space, carry presence, and respect the polarity — sex becomes a form of **reconnection**, not routine. | ||
+ | * This is not about becoming | ||
+ | * Most couples never get here — not because they can’t, but because they didn’t know it was possible. | ||
+ | * **From lust to trust** — that’s the important shift. | ||
+ | * Simply changing from a **closed relationship** to an **open relationship** will never truly “fix” a relationship that is already broken, unsatisfactory or unstable. | ||
- | This is what most couples never experience – not because they can’t, but because they didn’t know it could become something *more*. | + | That’s the difference. |
