Inside the head of the Initiation Style: Sentiment-Emotional
(* While each person has a complex mix of preferences, we can gain valuable insight into knowing which are the most compelling drivers to our arousal.)
The Sentiment-Emotional Initiation Type (aka “Sentiment”) comes the closest to the pure lover-connection. Sharing thoughts and feelings and having that connected feeling to a lover is the primary driver of your arousal. Emotional connection allows this type to “let go” and feel aroused and connected to their sexuality. They seek to merge (even if only for a moment), to become one with their partner. It is this ‘in-sync’ feeling that surpasses the boundaries between themselves and their lover.
One of the main pleasures for the Sentiment-Emotional Initiation Type is sharing pleasure with a partner.
Favorite sexual starter: A shared moment or intimate conversation.
Partners: The ideal partner of an Sentiment-Emotional Initiation Type has a good sense of themselves who can “go to” emotional places and share with a partner.
Turn-offs: A typical turn-off for this type would be to be a distant lover, someone who withholds connection or is difficult to read emotionally.
The Sentiment-Emotional Initiation Type craves connection. While every type experiences this emotional bonding a little bit at the beginning of a new relationship, this type continues to be driven by ‘bonding’ even after that ‘in-love’ feeling has passed. The Sentiment-Emotional Initiation Type’s erotic energy is focused on one specific “person.” They can be happy doing many sexual acts, or being in different environments, so long as they are connected with their lover.
