Self-Talk Confession

Posted on April 25, 2008 by modernsinglemomma

okay, so saying sweet nothings to myself in the mirror (and trying so hard to believe it) isn’t as orgasmic as I made it sound. BUT….what if it could be?
What if it was possible to make ourselves feel as beautiful and alive and as delicious as we wished another was making us feel?

It’s a goal!

Sometimes the insecure woman inside of me just wants so badly to hear a man say “You’re hot.” Other times the frustrated and lonely single mother inside of me just wants so badly to hear a man say, “You are an amazing mom…..and you are hot.”

Most of the time, though, like many of us here, there isn’t a man beside me to call me “princess” and make all my insecurities go away. Insecurities about how my breasts aren’t as perky as they once were, or my tummy as flat, or my bum as slappable (did I just say that?). So its up to me to deliver the cheesy lines and make myself feel better….or at least attempt to feel better.

I may be a mom, but I’m still a woman…and for some reason, gosh-dang it!, I want to hear–maybe even need to hear– that I still got it going on. =)

Anyone else feel the same?

    Well….as you can clearly see from my picture I ain’t a mom. BUT, I can (even though I am a man) identify with what you have said. In fact, your “self exercise in loving” is what drew me to read your postings. Many people don’t seem to realize what happens when they say to the person in the mirror “I love you…yer sexy!” For some, I will say, there is a disconnected feeling…like they actually have never heard those words before coming from their mouth. And, they…believe it or not…are right.

    They say communication is one of the big reasons a relationship breaks down between two lovers, friends, and/or members of a marriage. So, why would not communication, with one’s inner self, be as well a problem with how the relationship with you break down.

    In other words, the words “I love you (your name here)!” seem so foreign because their just might not be an honest exchange of feelings between you, yourself, (I).

    This was the brilliance, the magnificense, the beauty, the depth of self-knowledge you expressed in “Orgasmic Self-Talk.” I can not tell you how many times I have asked friends of mine to do what you’ve done. Some, who have honestly made the effort, have discovered that strange lovely soft voice inside whispering….”Wow…yer talking to me?” only to hear an angry…”That’s a first! What do you want!”

    Eventually, as you had, you persisted to convince (your Self) while this exercise was a tad silly…it has some merit for you to realize how absolutely joyous, sexy, sensual, intelligent, and deeply loving your really are.

    REMEMBER…You are Loved….and Loved…RIGHT NOW
