TOXIC LOVE & LOSING YOURSELF
If you do not recognise yourself in your relationship, it could be that your behaviour is in response to the actions of your partner, and not actually who you are in your natural state.
My point is that a woman’s behaviour is often a reflection of the energy she’s receiving from her man. (And vice versa).
Does every woman have their own growing to do with or without a man? Yes, of course.
Even so, a relationship can turn a woman into someone she’s not. It can even provoke reactive abuse, which might not be your usual style of interaction.
Even when a woman has done her growth and inner work, she could still become very dysfunctional if she’s with the wrong man.
Because of this, before you diagnose yourself with depression or anxiety or declare yourself unfit for love, check the type of men you’ve been dealing with.
What role have they been casting you into? What role have you been casting yourself into?
Always confirm if your behaviour is truly coming from who you are, or if it’s just a response to being placed into an uncomfortable role.
You are meant to be partners, so if you find yourself in the role of mother, or rescuer, or alpha, or child, it might be a coping mechanism to navigate your relationship.
If you’re feeling jealous, overworked, avoidant, angry or unsettled, take a look at what is triggering you. We all behave in ways that are not in our nature sometimes, and the trick is to discover how to reset.
Sometimes, people bring out the worst in each other, no matter how much love there is. But it is still our own responsibility how we respond. So do some soul searching, feel your feels and make decisions that are right for you. Decisions that bring you closer to your authentic self.
