Guilt + Shame + Self Love/Self Care = ?

Well hello there.

Have you ever experienced something where you weren’t being taken seriously enough on the levels or being told as being selfish yet they can be also seen as selfish themselves. And that example of that is them refusing to choose to be empathetic for someone else’s experience: to not put oneself in someone else’s shoes and understand their side of the story. To understand what they’ve experienced and continue to experience!

How has these experienced of being misunderstood, not supported the way we all deserve to be? How has that affected you since? How has it impacted you on the level of moments beyond and past them? Moments where you are with new people who can turn into new friends, coworkers, best friends, romantic partners, family, and everyone else?

What have you done to put a stop to this pattern, to this behaviour and this unhealthy cycle? What changed? What happened: both good and bad?

In the other view of this particular subject, does it annoy you to extreme measures how anyone who this may apply to: as refusing to try to be empathetic to on one end of the definition of love;

Love isn’t making demands of someone or forcing them to marry you. Love is putting someone else’s needs above your own.

Lead to the person acting in selfish and stubborn ways? How have you coped with these unhealthy and toxic moments? How have you let it affect your confidence and body image perception of you?
