In a lengthy post on X on Tuesday, 2 December, the musician shared that he has been going to therapy.

“I think sex is whack. From being molested as a child to now being an adult with numerous therapy visits, I can tell you that I might have been having it for the wrong reasons. With all the internal issues I had growing up, I became rich and famous. Suddenly, I had access to sex with anyone I wished; that was the beginning of a monsoon of a life,” Prince Kaybee said.

Contrary to popular belief, Prince Kaybee shared that he does not have a lot of sex because it requires compromise, meaning he has to engage when the other person wants, not just when he wants.

He shared that he avoids sex because he doesn’t like the idea of engaging out of obligation or compromise, and that his past trauma makes this dynamic extremely uncomfortable for both him and his partners.

Prince Kaybee shared that he struggles with emotional vulnerability because of his past trauma. He explained that when someone shows him care or affection, it unsettles him, and instead of reciprocating, he instinctively pushes them away. The post was captioned:

“My relationship with sex is also defined by how I get uncomfortable when shown compassion. I repel any form of love because I am fine without it, and in most cases, when people have sex, they say they make love, love being something that makes me uncomfortable with how it's defined in modern times. I am a psychopath, I feel less❤️, what you see out there is a distorted understanding of who I really am, but I am not going to fight it, your truth, your rules❤️”

Prince Kaybee acknowledged the damage caused by his past behaviour, and that he has made peace with the fact that he may never understand real intimacy.

How to building healthy relationships as an adult after emotional abandonment

Relationship expert, Paula Quinsee, shared with Briefly News, steps to take when building relationships after childhood trauma.

Paula Quinsee urged individuals to seek counselling or therapy.

"Professional help such as counselling or therapy in childhood trauma and attachment, can help address our childhood wounding and provide individuals with tools for managing anxiety, understanding their attachment styles, and improving their relationship dynamics with others," Paula Quinsee said.

She explained that to overcome feeling unworthy of love and car, one has to love themselves first.

"Learning to treat oneself with kindness, compassion and patience is essential for overcoming feelings of unworthiness, which can be developed through mindfulness practices, affirmations, and challenging negative self-talk and narratives," Paula Quinsee added.
