34 - You ghosted me then ‘orbited me’ so my therapist told me to block you. Exploring the psychology of orbiting

Orbiting is the newest toxic relationship trend. Orbiting is when someone breaks off direct contact with you after you have been talking, dating or sleeping together, but then they continue to engage with you on social media - orbiting around you. 

In this quick fire OPEN(HEART) episode of the OPENHOUSE Podcast, Louise sits down with Dr Tari Mack for a live coaching session on what to do with a guy that is orbiting her. 

Louise and Dr Tari explore

⇢ What is orbiting;

⇢ Why people do it;

⇢ What it means;

⇢ What to do if you are on the receiving end of it;  


Louise also asks whether:

⇢ You should block someone who is orbiting you; 

⇢ Whether blocking someone seems too dramatic; 


⇢ Whether she should have a conversation with the person.
