Quote: Would you be willing to give other things up in order to have your fantasy sex life? In other words, do you secretly feel you have to barter with the universe and give back something else before you can receive something new?
It calls to mind issues of poverty v abundance thinking, fear v boldness, and safety v risk."
Yes, that is what I am getting at. I think a lot of us have this secret belief that we need to "do something" or "give something up" in order to have our wishes come true. Even if in the form of giving up calories and exercising more....because I have heard women friends say before "well if I looked like HER (insert name of movie beauty queen) then obviously I would have a better sex life, but I don't have that kind of discipline to get that skinny". So there is the thought there that she can't have the kind of sex life she would desire if she doesn't change how she looks. In her mind, looking the way she does prevents her from having a rockin' sex life. I have heard many differing types of statements on this same theme over the years.
