Engaging in intimacy with someone who doesn’t value or respect you can have lasting emotional consequences.
While such encounters may initially seem harmless or pleasurable, they often lead to feelings of emptiness, regret, and even self-doubt.
When emotions and physical intimacy intertwine, it becomes difficult to separate the two, especially for individuals who naturally attach emotionally through closeness. The aftermath can include lingering sadness, confusion, or the painful realization that the connection wasn’t mutual or meaningful.
