What if I told you that you could start right now solving relationship problems and creating healthy relationships — both new and existing? Here’s how:

Lori Prokop Relationship Advice #1

Are you comfortable with yourself? The first best friend you need is you. If you have problems or are critical of yourself, seek the help of a counselor or therapist to look at where you learned this behavior. You likely learned this as a child from parents, caregivers, peers or teachers. Whatever the issue, it can be overcome.

Intimacy does not mean physical relations. Intimacy is “in-to-me-i-see.”

In order to connect with others and have a healthy relationship, you have to first connect with yourself. You can’t be close with another until you can be close with yourself. Again, as in the above step, if this is a challenge, help is available. Seek a counselor or therapist and talk to them about this.
