Your inner child’s fears need not be your enemy.

I see you wild child. In all your glory, with all your dreams and insecurities, and I am holding you.

As you explore your inner world and that of your inner child, remember she holds more than your tears and fears; she holds your strengths, gifts and wisdom, too.

Without the necessary awareness, your inner child and his are the ones having fights, being defensive, getting overly emotional, and being all-around triggered. The first step is awareness: my inner child is afraid.

A man pulling away in the early days of your connection is pretty common and yes, it’s very uncomfortable for you. The masculine energy desires freedom, and when he starts to fear that he’s losing it, he’s likely to pull back a little while. That being said, ghosting you all together is never an acceptable approach.
