FollowToday’s Question for Get The Love You Crave Q&A, comes from Elena, a courageous woman from Italy who is ready to love after a painful breakup but fearful to be hurt again and therefore holding back her deepest gifts of love. Without fully realizing in holding back she’s pushing potentially awesome and conscious men away from her life.
“Dear Bern,
My name is Elena and I’m a 34 year old woman from Santa Sofia, Italy (where I’ve lived for most of my life).
I’ve watched many of your videos and although I’m not typically comfortable sharing my private life in public I felt that you might be able to shed some light into my current dilema.Last December I ended a relationship that lasted over four years and I’m struggling a bit with putting myself out there to find love again. I’ve met a few interesting men but I can’t seem to let my guard down and let any of them really inside my heart for fear of being hurt. Deep down I know I want love in my life but I’m not sure how to prevent another man from cheating on me. What do you suggest as a practical way to find a partner who can love me completely and respect me enough to be monogamous?”
