What does emotional "connection" mean to you? How do you build it?

Asked by wundayatta (58722points) April 5th, 2011

My wife used to talk about our lack of “connection” when we were having more serious problems. It generally baffled me. What did I need to do in order to establish this connection? I imagined that there was some kind of transcendent umbilical cord invisibly connecting us—an impossible thing to create.

Still, we managed to rebuild it, whatever “it” is. But it leaves me anxious not quite knowing how it comes about and how much of it is me and how much of it is her.

What do you think “connection” is? How do you build it?
