This is for my young or old patients who are weary of any new relationship after a bitter experience. Take the next step but watch out:

Watch for these red flags:

1. Emotional coldness: They talk just for the sake of it. They’ll answer questions briefly but won’t engage emotionally. No curiosity about you, no excitement about the wedding, and no conversations about the future.

2. Guarded phone behavior: They never leave their phone unattended. It’s usually kept face-down, with read receipts and last seen turned off, and chat histories cleared. They keep checking their phone even during your brief meetings.

3. Zero enthusiasm for wedding planning: They show no interest, leave decisions to their family, and avoid discussions on dates, clothes, or rituals. Even talking about the honeymoon seems to bore or annoy them.

4. Uninterested in you or your family: They don’t ask about your likes, dislikes, goals, or daily life. They forget what you’ve shared and avoid asking about your parents, siblings, or relatives, or meeting them.

5. Mysterious absences: They disappear for a day or two with weak or inconsistent excuses. No genuine emergencies, just sudden silence. If you ask where they were, they get annoyed.

6. Emotionally absent in person, active online: In real life, they seem distant, awkward, or disinterested. Yet online, they’re engaging, liking, commenting on one particular person’s posts, or posting cryptic quotes that hint at sadness or longing.

7. Uncomfortable with intimacy: Even simple gestures like holding hands, taking photos together, or giving compliments make them uncomfortable. There’s no visible affection, not even the early-stage awkward kind.

8. Hides the relationship online: They’re active on social media but avoid mentioning or posting about the engagement. They won’t tag you, claiming they’re “private” or not into social media, despite clear evidence to the contrary.

9. Their friends act strange around you: First, they avoid letting you meet their friends, but if it happens, the friends behave unusually quiet, cold, or too formal, as if they know something but can’t say it.

Remember: breaking an engagement is far easier emotionally, legally and socially than undoing a marriage.

Gillian Lynne: The Girl Who Couldn't Sit Still

Gillian was just seven when the world decided something was wrong with her.
She couldn't sit still in school. She fidgeted, daydreamed, wandered in thought, and failed to follow lessons.
Teachers scolded her. They rewarded her when she managed to stay still—but mostly, they punished her.

At home, it was no different. Her mother, worn down by complaints, punished her too.
Gillian wasn’t just failing in school—she was being made to feel like a failure at home as well.

One day, the school called her mother in for a serious meeting.
As she sat in the room, anxious and bracing for more bad news, the teachers spoke about disorders, medication, maybe hyperactivity.
They were convinced something needed to be fixed.

But then, an older teacher entered the room. He had known Gillian before.
He asked everyone to follow him into an adjoining room where they could still see the girl.
Before leaving, he turned on a small radio and let music fill the space.

And then they saw it.

Gillian, alone, began to move.
She danced. Her body followed the music with joy and instinct.
Her feet tapped, her arms soared—her entire being was in motion, filled with rhythm and life.

The old teacher simply smiled and said:
"She’s not sick. She’s a dancer."

He told her mother to enroll her in dance school.
She did.
And at her very first class, Gillian came home radiant, saying:
"Everyone’s like me. No one can sit still!"

That little girl went on to become Dame Gillian Lynne—world-renowned dancer, choreographer, and creative mind behind the iconic musical Cats.

May every misunderstood child find someone who sees their gift, not their flaw.

✨ Celebrate the ones who don’t fit the mold—because they’re the ones who shape the world.
