      No. Only you can really "see" and love yourself unconditionally. Everyone else will only love you conditionally, even your parents. So you will need to see, accept and love yourself and that is the only way to heal and have a chance of healthy relationship. If you don't have a healthy relationship with yourself, it will not be possible with anybody else either

    Took me quite a few years to even be able to see the role I played in my divorce. Of course, it’s the dynamic between partners, but I used to believe I was purely a victim of bad behavior. I agree with this wholeheartedly that I was not always managing my emotions. The stress with REAL with a newborn and also being a stepmom for the first time on top of giving birth. But, I blamed my ex husband for mismanagement of my stress and emotions. This was 16 years ago and he definitely didn’t handle stress well either. Funny how most of us are having kids prior to being self-aware enough to handle our own emotions. We are still growing up while we are having kids. To anyone in this situation, have compassion for yourself, forgive yourself often… we are all still learning 💖

      I've always been the opposite of you and always blamed myself and constantly racked my brain thinking "What can I say or do to find that connection again?!" But as I've gotten older, I realized it's not always me who is at fault and oftentimes mutual mental distress amplify each others stress leading to a downward spiral. It takes 2 to tango. Both parties have to consciously put in the work together

      @@jzen1455 yep, that was the conclusion I came to as well. It is the dynamic between partners. We need to accept the role we played, but it’s never completely our fault (or vice versa). Even if our only fault was “rushing in” to a relationship without taking necessary time to get to know our partner (that’s what I did) that’s still the role we played. Poor judgment & decision making skills lol

      Same here, only I’m divorcing now after 20 years and 2 children. It took all this long because of them, otherwise I found out who really is after 11 years. Covert narcissists are more manipulative and deceitful and takes years sometimes for their masks to fall off.

    • @smkladeez
      @smkladeez 9 місяців тому +1

      @Sunshinelollipops223 I think the idea is if you keep repeating a pattern of dating certain types but keep running into the same pitfalls with those types, then it's a sign that it's time to switch it up. They never claimed that all boring people are good and safe. It's just a tool one can use to break out of an unhealthy cycle. It's not a guarantee that you'll find the perfect partner. Finding someone who's actually stable and emotionally available is scary for some, so they avoid it and label it "boring" out of fear. There's no advice a coach/therapist can give that will 100% guarantee you won't find yourself in an abusive situation. But trying it out with someone you know is good for you but perceive as boring is a hell of a lot better than continuing to get into exhilarating but tumultuous and toxic relationships that always fail in the end.

    Those 2 words do so much to bring to front how much you do for each other. Hopefully the thank yous are equal.

Looking back in my life I can see all the places where my picker was off (sacrificed my needs and desires in order to be loved) and now I'm living with those consequences.

    What is love? What is fear? This we learn on Earth. By having fearful experiences we get to know fear and by having loving experiences we get to know love and all fearful experiences can be very challenging so much love and compassion to all fear, to all fears. Thank you for sharing 🌎

    I needed to hear her speak on the stonewalling & ghosting. I saw the great relationship and wanted it back, but these things are true dealbreakers…can’t compromise without conversation and/or conflict resolution. We could have solved our issue if he was willing to talk… I was quickly put in a category. Our breakdown actually happened after my cousin who was like a sister died a few weeks earlier and was done on my bday. I needed work, but damnit I forgot I’m a catch who just didn’t see something was still lingering to work on. I guess I dodged a bullet. 🤷🏾‍♀️
    At least, I saw my opportunity and have been working diligently to heal my attachment style from disorganized to secure. I look forward to finding the love I deserve! ☺️

    Absolutely brilliant. Love this. One criticism though. It's really important to make the distinction between acceptance and toleration. You know that you are truly accepting something if you would not prefer it to be different. You know that you are tolerating something if you would prefer it to be different. Lots of people get these two mixed up and they mistake unhealthy toleration as healthy acceptance. What is often seen as healthy acceptance is basically somebody not having found a way to influence their partner to stop doing what they find difficult or harmful. And what often comes under the umbrella of healthy acceptance is toleration of harm. The kind of people who are more likely to be watching this podcast are probably going to be people in abusive relationships. If you're in a good relationship you're probably less likely to watch This podcast. Therefore it is really important not to put the word toleration in there as something that is a good thing. That is not abuse informed language. If you are tolerating something by definition you don't like it.

    40 years of what I thought was a reciprocal relationship turns out he was avoidant in the extreme which culminated in resentment & sadness & stonewalling . I was not aware of my or my husbands issues during this time & counselling never found a path forward . Unfortunately our daughters have also borne the burden of our lack of education & responsibility’s.

    Being conscious starting a relationship is a must, but everyone has a shadow that holds both issues and hidden desires and gifts and if you dismiss a potential partner because they don't fit a list or are not matching all of your life goals, you may be missing out on the greatest healing opportunity of your life...in other words, most of us are not fully conscious of what would be good for us
