“Unlocking Emotional Walls: 7 Phrases That Reveal an Unavailable Heart”
Some people dismiss therapy, emotional check-ins, or any hint of introspection as “fluff.”
They paint feelings as irrational nonsense, placing themselves above what they see as needless sentimentality. Michelle Obama famously said, “You can’t make decisions based on fear and the possibility of what might happen.”
Similarly, it’s hard to build a genuine relationship on a foundation that denies or ridicules the importance of emotional honesty.
This language might stem from past trauma, cultural influences, or deep-seated fears of being hurt. However, it’s nearly impossible to nurture a true bond if one person outright rejects emotional communication.
