I do not get the gut punch anymore. When you feel rejected, abandoned, you're not being chosen. And I used to get that a lot in dating specifically. There's waiting by the phone, looking for a best. Literally feel that if that person does not respond to you in a certain amount of time, they don't get back to you, tier ghost you into physical pain. I used to get this as well when I was in long term relationships, like even with boyfriends who like proved their loyalty to me over tier. I still would get that gut punch in my stomach. My brain chemistry would shift. All the chemical flood would go through my bad, feel so rejected and so abandoned. And I don't get that anymore, which is like one of my greatest accomplishments in my thirties. And I wanna tell you how I did that. Because honestly, what that gut punch is, all the beliefs that you have about yourself, you are not worse, that you are not worthy of being chosen, that people easily reject and abandon you. All of those beliefs and ideas packed into this fist.
