@oopsyoudiditagain maybe you need to explain what this actually means. 🤷‍♀️

Connected emotionally? Like an emotional affair?

Has somebody said they don't feel an emotional connection to you (when dating) and you want that exploring?

Without context it means nothing

See I imagined a child who wouldn't get rid of their dummy. 😂

I think you need to see it in a sentence for context.

I suppose I have an emotional connection room to the town we took all summer holidays at first over a decade.

Two people could have an emotional connection because of similar experiences so feel closer.

Some could have an emotional connection to ice cream straight out the family size tub as they associate with breakups and feeling better.

Dunno what way you mean it?

Haha - also thought it was a toddler with their dummy Grin

Mine have had a big emotional connection before the dummy fairy came Halo

I thought of the series of books '(Whatever) for Dummies.' There are lots of them, wondered if you were looking for one with the title you gave. They're usually quite long books, are supposed to be very clear, step by step coverage of something you have no experience of, by someone who has a lot of experience.
