RE: A failed attempt at a 10 day meditation retreat - PART 2

in #meditation6 years ago

Seems to have been an intense experience. The way you feel for your beloved is remarkable. I don't think I know anyone who loves with so much intensity and dedication.

Would you say that having this kind of love made dealing with the retreat easier or harder?

Sort:  

Yes it was really intense. The fact that I was missing him so much made the retreat a lot harder, at the end that's why I had to leave. I don't know how other married people there did it...
But our love is exceptional for sure :)

Quite remarkable and also a bit scary. I gotta say, while I do value companionship and love, I am not sure if I could live with myself like that.

Then again, everyone is different for a reason. I'm glad it works out for you the way it does.

Do you mean live with yourself loving someone that much?
Yes for us it works out well. But if I'd never met my husband,, then I'd probably say the same as you

Yes. When I am in a relationship, I am okay with being with someone, but I am also okay with being by myself.

And if were to lose that factor, if I would feel wanting whenever I am on my own, I would start to get on my own nerves very quick.
