 Ladies, just because you have intimate relationships with friends, doesn't necessarily mean you know the mechanics to intimacy. And let me just say this, you are the emotional leader of the relationship. I know you'd love to just sit back in your feminine energy and let the mind drive the bus. Most men are clueless, they're winging it. You have to drive the bus of emotional intimacy, and that will build the stronger bond with one of you, the two of you. So you don't have to wait. Let me reframe that. You don't have to experience silence in a more seasoned relationship. And by the way, once you're in a seasoned relationship, you know, taking a break every now and again doesn't hurt. And what I mean to say is taking a step back and evaluating. And I always recommend to all my clients that are more seasoned relationship to do what's called a check-in conversation.
