Relationship With People Mimics Relationship With Food

I read this post and was totally intrigued by the question; how does my relationship with people mimic my relationship with food?

I'm not sure, but I'd like to find out!

Because I'm much more familiar with my relationship with food, I will start there.

My relationship with food is:

• tumultuous
• love/hate
• reward based
• involves lots of rules
• involves lots of control
• fear based
• the most dominant force in my life
• obsessive
• passionate
• dramatic
• repetitive
• selective (picky)

If I take this list and apply it to people...

• tumultuous-I find myself attracted to people with big personalities as it allows me to hide and they are in charge
  
• love/hate-I am definitely hot and cold in relationships.  I can adore someone in a moment and be completely irritated by them in the next moment.
  
• reward based
  
• involves lots of rules
• involves lots of control-I'm a big "screener" and find it hard to commit to social plans because I'm such a control freak.  As soon as I feel out of control, I don't want to show up.
  
• fear based-sure.  I'm afraid of most people and social situations.  I'm what you call a loner, or isolator.
  
• the most dominant force in my life
• obsessive
• passionate
• dramatic
• repetitive
• selective (picky)-the people I have in my life who I feel safe with are few, and it's really about me, not them.

I have no idea what any of this means, but thought I would share and would LOVE to hear where your relationships with food and people meet...
