My Limits Are Shifting

I've always been open about my desire for emotional connection but I recently had this intense fling with someone that was more about the physical side. It felt so freeing and raw, which is a stark contrast to how I usually navigate relationships. But now, every time I consider being intimate with my partner, I find myself craving something different, something more primal. It's like parts of me are awakening that have been dormant for years. I feel torn between these new desires and the person I've always wanted to be.
