I know some couples who actually enjoy triggering each other. They enjoy it because they feel they need the triggers in order to bring their unresolved wounds to the surface. For them, their tumultuous connection is the primary way they become conscious of their issues. Wound-mating. This is one kind of conscious relationship. I prefer another kind- one where the connection is so stable and kind that your armor melts into sweetness. In the heart of that opening, your wounds and issues feel safe to reveal themselves. Not triggered by your partner, not re-traumatized by the connection, but invited into awareness and healing by their loving presence. That’s my kind of conscious relationship.
