@AION I guess the alternative definition presented was missed - irrespective of personal alignment

@AION did you watch the original video Leo filmed?

This is very strange to believe. I hope you have some more varied experiences.

Attachment issues can be a big driver for this sort of behaviour Total non answer - take it as a hypothetical

This is an AI generated image, correct?

What WORDS do you want to hear?

@Rishabh R @StaraX thank you - and thanks to the rest of the men who replied! Appreciated Interested to hear what @CARDOZZO @Valach @BlessedLion @Zenterus might say

Thank you for the replies - the question is about spoken words regarding expressing affection. Not actions. I found the question interesting because it provoked a lot of thought for myself in my business relationships (95% men). The contractors I ask more frequently report they want to hear they are respected. I have a strange, biased sample size so I am interested to hear what the men who engage in consciousness work replied with.

Tell me. If you could choose what you want to hear more from a partner: "I deeply respect you" or "I deeply love you" I do think there will be overlap depending on how we define romantic love - this is about what you want to hear more from a woman.

Gotcha. Honestly this is SUCH a big topic for contemplation - and for me it is never-ending. Feelings, emotions, thoughts. MASSIVE. And I am no way near done! But I truly appreciate this little snippet of dialogue. Love a good brain rubbing session

Wait okay - for myself - not all feelings are just sensations. If I say sensations I say sensations. Maybe there is some mixup happening

Yes, exactly. You can have direct experience of a feeling and overlay (perception) also be true.

So, when you feel a tingling in your feet - there is no connection active? You are just your feet tingling?

To conclude from the original statement - I am making a claim regarding telepathy. I won't be able to prove my claim - It is beyond my personal ability to do so. My claim is based on two unique experiences. But my knowing of the experiences is true.

@Jirh You can connect to your feelings in an inauthentic way through misunderstanding. Maybe feelings are direct for you - but often we have a layer of HOW we are interacting with them. That layer is interpretive. For example, I can feel my heart rate increase, my breathing quicken. I might feel that as anxiety. I might feel that as excitement. Which one is true? How do you know?
