The fermionic mind hypothesis (FMH) recognizes that the conscious brain is a self-regulating system. Sensory perception is an energy/information exchange with the environment, which generates mental changes. Intelligent responses to stimulus require that the mind adopts the physical laws for its operation. This is the main idea of the fermionic mind hypothesis. You can test the hypothesis for yourself in the comfort of your own home. You should not experiment if your emotional or physical wellbeing can be in danger. (Disclaimer: The author is not responsible for emotional discomfort or injuries triggered by this experiment.)
The experimental setup:
A well-defined emotional distance characterizes every relationship, which is regulated by emotions with great precision. Although it is difficult to test the emotional distance, you can easily measure its changes, extending and shortening it, like Tuffy candy. Perceived changes trigger a strong reaction to restore normalcy.
Your experimental subject must be a person (or a pet) close to you emotionally. The test manipulates the distance between you and a loved one or a trusted friend in a relatively short time. Therefore, if you refrain from dramatic actions, this will not cause long-term damage to the relationship. There are two possible versions of the experiment.
1, Reduce the emotional distance. To achieve this, you have to seek closeness, such as romance, giving favors and gifts more than usual. On the other hand, at the moment your subject indicates a need for separation (you will notice his attempt to push you away), reverse your attitude toward them by acting cold and indifferent.
2. Increase the emotional distance. You will have to act cold and ignorant toward your subject. As soon as your partner attempts to reverse the situation by favors and trying to be "nicer," reverse the course by being warm and affectionate.
Evaluate the results of your experiment. In maintaining the emotional distance between the two of you, your mind performed an everyday miracle. It gradually modified both partners' feelings and attitudes to keep your relationship balanced. How did your feelings change? How did the behavior of your partner change? Congratulations, you achieved an empowering outside view of yourself and your relationship.
