Two wounded children? Now adults, who find a connection through sharing a similar experience of childhood trauma? Or a later trauma, like they both lost a partner or a child at an early age? Something similar happened – they share the same support group? Or are they trauma bonded? Google ‘trauma bonds’. Or is just that they both understand what it is to experience trauma?
Stalkerish? Unrequited love? Or is it more simple, that they both feel very differently and that is fine – just how it is?
