I have a question about the episode #043: Do You Feel Your Feelings? with Megan Jane Soutar and the clip Navigating Childhood Bullying. I am almost 60 years old and have started looking back at my younger years, especially from ages 12 to 32. I believe my frontal lobes came online late, and I developed many strong attachments to girls during that time, falling in love maybe 12 or 13 times. (Ask me about singing to a girl over the phone or castrating pigs with a girl's father just to be seen.) No one ever spoke to me about my brain, and I realize my brain made me a real asshole. I was hurt, and other people were hurt. I take responsibility for my own actions, but is it also OK for me to harbor a little resentment about my education? Would I have listened if someone had told me about it?
If I have worked super hard on myself physically and mentally for years as a 21-year-old man, why does it sting much more when I open up about my life, values, and passions and still don't achieve a deeper connection? This question relates to the episodes Change Your Relationship to Money w/ Amanda Clayman #824, A Toymaker With a Dark Secret and a Giant Heart: Melissa Bernstein, and the clips Embracing Vulnerability and Healing Through Acknowledgment, as well as the episode #256: Healing in a Toxic Culture with Dr. Gabor Maté and the clip Authenticity vs. Attachment.
