Childhood Demons


"To really understand someone, you need to uncover his past insecurities and fears," says Atwood. And there's no better way to shed light on his underlying issues than by finding out about those scary experiences at the most vulnerable time of his life - childhood. Ask him what day he wishes he could redo, the biggest misconception people had about him as a teenager, or who scared him the most. "If he says he was criticized constantly by a particular teacher, it may explain why he's afraid of his superiors looking down on him," explains Shoshanna. "Or perhaps a sibling was favored over him growing up, which might reveal why he feels possessive or competitive in close relationships."
