Involvement in meaningful emotional relationships within intimate personal relationships might expose the limitations of objectivity. Expressions of honest affection might elicit emotions which would expose the limitations of objectivity. If one does not know how to control desires and emotions, and feels that one must be in control at all times; then it is important to avoid situations which might activate desires and emotions which cannot be controlled or talked about. It is important to compulsively objective people that they stay out of touch with themselves and others; for to be in touch might begin a catastrophic process of activation of intimacy, affection, and emotional honesty which could not be controlled and so might expose the limitations of impersonal objectivity. That might destroy the objective paradigm which is their only source of security, and the admired fix for their emotionally impoverished lives. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
