    It can be confusing when someone acts in ways that seem selfish, oblivious, disrespectful, self-centred, reactive, or rude. But the thing is, most of the time when people repeatedly act in these ways it's because they lack emotional maturity. They both don't recognize the impact of their words or behaviours on others, and they don't know what to do with their own emotions or how to regulate themselves. When we can see that the way someone is behaving is not about us, but about them not knowing how to cope with their own big feelings it can help us stay calm, centred and grounded - which also then allow us to build our own emotional maturity.

      Seems to work both ways. If I cannot already identify it in somebody else then I would be equally if not more immature already--or so I would think. I just take it as it flows and hope for insightful gain. Otherwise, I might just read into what you talk about what I want to hear as opposed to what you are actually saying.

    7:14
    Being closed minded
    10:27
    Having a victim mentality
    12:11
    Being easily offended
    13:15
    Avoiding responsibility
    18:37
    Downplaying other’s achievements, jealousy
    The lesson I learned is that emotional immaturity comes down to not caring about how your actions make others around you feel.

      My younger brother died last September. A couple of years ago he called me "a Trumper". He then explained that a counselor ad convinced him that his problem were a result of living with parents who lied.
      His final words to me the night before his final Hospice nurse visit was, "My two brothers are my heros."
      No--- our parents did not lie. When he lied, they called him on it. I asked him if he had ever known me to lie?

      @TonyaS For what it's worth, it seems (in a nutshell) that you're clearly already 'better' than that. Not only is there a very important difference between,
      1. You: Having the honest self-awareness to reflect on "sometimes doing something myself", that then leads to an individual responsibility > capability of understanding the why and/or what to do with/about it. A type of empathetic introspection/recognition that besides yourself, often extents to others as well.
      2: Those in question: Seemingly void of internally aimed acknowledgement or complex structures of meaning, perception, consequence etc. Limited/restricted to surface levels of basic taught ways of accepting reality within and around them. Essentially anything beyond that is incomprehensible to consider, formulate or process.
      It's really unfortunate, but having experienced it to such a ridiculous extent it was as if not from the same plain of reality. No matter how much I tried to explain intent or correct misunderstandings, ask for clarification, painted the whole picture, different positive approaches, avoid things, you name it. It was as if nothing ever got heard, noticed or remembered. All I got was someone stuck on playing The Negative Setting ft. Auto-instant Deflection on repeat. Never adding anything new, or any original personal input. Nor open to hearing those. -- From basically raising myself to were all my life most people I met (even strangers) complimented me for how much a conversation with me had helped them in some way, so it was something I felt proud over, something I was seemingly naturally good at and appreciated for. But it stood absolutely zero chance against how unbelievably impossible to talk to someone like that could be... Even though I sympathize for potential causes and in this case might even know what might've, but at some point it's just as simple as, this is just who they are and will never even adjust let alone somewhat change. To them you're the problem. Best for both parties to then indeed cut your losses, but claim your lessons. You've earned them.

    Point number 1 isn't necessarily always the case.
    Sometimes other emotionally immature people (such as toxic parents) push you too react. They know the buttons that will make you freak out, or enrage you. However emotionally immature the recepiant of this treatment is, the toxic parents are the real problem.
    The point I am trying to make is don't blame yourself for emotional immaturity if someone is abusing you to react and blow up. Blame them, abandon them, and work on your own emotional regulation from there. It's not your fault, it's theirs.

    • @Books_Makeup
      @Books_Makeup Місяць тому +2

      This is true. I agree about working on own emotional regulation. In my scenario, my dad and mom are both toxic. I had to cut him off because he would drag me into arguments. He would do this by asking my opinion on something that he was talking to my mom about. I would defend my mother, and my dad would take me out of context and take my supporting my mom as disloyal to him. He would project and then go onto say I was being disloyal to my mother. It's really interesting to watch this triangulation pattern. How abusers accuse you of the thing they are doing in order to bait you is really interesting. I'm interested in human psychology so your comment piqued my interest. Now my response is to not allow myself to get in situations where I can get triangulated. Awareness, therapy, cutting off toxic relationships and medication have helped immensely 💜💜. If you or anyone else is in a similar situation. I totally understand💜. Take care of yourself🙏

      How is overreaction calculated? Where's the line? There is a trait of being highly sensitive, and this includes feeling whatever is hitting their senses at the same time the emotionally distressing interaction is going on. Like a drill piercing their skin and brain at the same time. The combination can produce a greater reaction in a sensitive person. Which is usually followed by the other person saying derisively, "Your so sensitive!"

    I love the fact, that you didn't use the term narcessist. In my thinking every narc is highly emotional immature, but not everyone of them is a cluster B. After my first toxic girl in my 50ies I lost finally my own emotional immaturety for good. Since then I stayed single for a year and became then surprisenly starting dating again very attractive for women more so than before. But I can't find a woman that brings my new standard to the table. I had become that allergic, that I get the first sign of immaturity loud and clear. I live in the moment and can observe closly cuz I'm good with myself. After the first sh..it burger I be able to predict the next three to four outlandish moves and end it after a few dates, no matter the sex was great or not.
    I started dating women around 30/40 while me being 58. But I was that disapointed that I now date girls from 18 to 25. If I get not what a woman is supposed to be, why not a glowing girl in her prime without kids and trust issues and a far higher sex drive? I'm top fit, young girls are crazy about me and I have to take care not getting a 14 years old in South América. A woman 20 years younger than me is an old lady at my side and she can't even keep my walking pace, I won't discuss their physical sexual problems.
    And what is shocking to me, I find younger girls even be far more emotional mature. I asked myself how can that be? It might be their higher reality based self esteem cuz of their youth and beauty. Maybe society has become a little less neurotic and they grew up a bit healthier. Older women who are single have proven that they can't keep a relationship or can't vet and value a strong healthy man, unless they are a widdow. Why even try?
    In case of a girl there are the relationship girls still in the pool. I live and love now against my formal morals and believes. None of the girls dumps me, they wait for my call. I ring up the one who made me happy the most, who I could make happy the most, but most of the time they call me.There are no lies, they let me be myself, cuz they are not desperate.
    After my ground zero I kept only one friend. But I found a friend that is the best friend I ever had. He and his wife live in an open relationship. Both are friends and I have become part of their families. Even if the guy is good looking, he isn't that good with girls, but there is no envy. Envy, a feeling I never had in my life. It makes me so happy to see a couple being that happy. I had judged an open relationship before, but they'd never judged me with all my young girls. Their dougter 22 is married to a great guy who became a great friend as well.
    They even try to help me vetting the girls for a relationship or presenting me to women, cuz they know I'm a relationship guy. But over time I have changed. My standards might be high, maybe too high but the worst working against a relaionship is now: The girls give me everything and more and the threshold to put up with sh..it had become extremly low. It still makes me sad being happy. I would even love to start a family one more time being a grandpa, cuz I could.
    Pain is needed for change, sometimes you become even who you are, but you might not like it.
    But if people truly care for that person that you truly are, it is worth it.

    I feel like his behavior made me stuck in a freeze mode.
    I have so much to learn, that lifetime might not be enough to do so.
    In the meantime I will be happy when I can enjoy life a bit without a struggle.

    I clicked to learn more about---me. I once went into a therapist's office (18 yrs ago) with a list of 15 faults/character flaws I believed I had. I read them off. His jaw dropped. I then presented the written list to him. He said in 30 yrs of practice it was the first time anyone had ever done that. He didn't know what to say, so he offered--nothing. Eventually I stopped seeing him (NOT saying all therapists are this sub-par. Some therapists are super. He was not among them.) I found silent meditation helped more than paying that guy (doctorate)--who wasn't equipped to handle any client who wasn't simply complaining and blaming--others, ad nauseam.

    Julia, your friend cut you off and it’s so sad to hear you talk about it. You understandably recognize her lack of development and capacity to handle the trigger and that shows your developmental maturity and skills which is a great benefit to your audience and those in your outreach. It must be a joy when a good therapist helps an individual grow. I think it must be very sad and difficult when the resources get rejected.

It was not going well, they were arguing. I asked her if she can imagine how would she feel if it was the opposite, and the same was done to her. She said: "Well, that wouldn't bother me."

    I have a coworker / preceptor who I’ve known for 3 months. I’ve noticed he has this “thing” where he gets upset or acts weird with certain topics. He once asked me if “I was getting better in training”. I had only trained for 3 weeks (as a student) and he was so upset. His foot was tapping so hard the palatable we were sitting in was shaking. My training is for 8 months….
    Last week we were sitting down and I was asking just small talking. I asked him if there was a place I can park for free near by. We talked a bit and I asked him what got him in the profession. I asked what city he lives in in regards to drive time to work. And the more we spoke he just kept getting uncomfortable. He ended up leaving and walked away. It was so weird I ended up sending a message apologizing if I said something wrong
