I just read something that resonates with me and may very well speak to others here.
"Secure people don't feel the need to control the situation. They realize that they can either adjust and if needed, just walk away."
I think this is the core meaning of why it is so important to GAL. By restoring one's self-esteem, we are able to Detach. So why is it so important to Detach?
1. It stops any "Fight or Flight" dynamic and removes pressure on both parties. Stop the chase. 2. Works to restore the masculine/feminine dynamic in the R. This is why NGS is so toxic to an R. 3. It improves the attractiveness and perceived value of the LBS.
I am by no means an expert, but I am the type of person that better learns this type of stuff when I feel I understand it. Wait, was that in its self, controlling behavior? lol Anyway, I hope this might help others.
