Who else wants a full video on Emotional Hunger
I'm watching this just in case I DO get into a toxic relationship. Gotta be prepared, thanks for the lesson!
If People talk like this, they show their toxic nature, that gave no room for real interaction: "I think it's hilarious you think I'm the one being disrespectful, mean and abusive. Have you read any of your comments.?! Your contempt is astounding!" As if this kind of person ever care about how they talk as long as they get from others what they want, as if they are a teacher, just because of the fact that they watch everything from the outside.
It’s bad to be selfish, and it’s bad when you always listen to others. We can try to strike a balance or set some healthy boundaries for ourselves.
Me: *is single* Brain: Just in case bro
Don't get me wrong, but it is not always that your partner is toxic it can be you too but you may not realize. If you ever feel you're in a toxic relationship first think then talk with your partner. Whenever you have a problem leaving a relationship is definitely not a solution. Talk let them know how they behave, or if it is you think if you can change that behavior. Not everyone is perfect, people have flaws. As mentioned in this video changing in a positive way matters example may be working on your toxic behaviors to change them. Hold on to your relationship if you think maybe you or your partner can work on these issues, if it still doesn't work then maybe you should consider leaving. Communication is the key part, when you talk with your partner you can work on many issues if you have any. Whatever it is talk let them know. Running away from problems ain't a solution for anything try working on it if it still doesn't make any changes then you may consider leaving.
I can easily say that I have dropped all of my hobbies and pastimes to adopt my partner’s hobbies and pastimes. Realizing too late that I’ve lost who I am because I don’t do what I love anymore. I am also probably emotional hungry and very well could me mistaking it for love at this point. Wonderful video, greatly appreciate this awareness
Toxic people talk like this, just because they think the know who they are and how they talk: "whatever you said?!. I have no clue what you are blading about incoherently. I never mentioned any of that. Please don't explain either it will fall on grayrocked ears." Narcissists know how to focus on their victim as if their own nature is nothing bad at all, only "selfprotection", not gaslightning or blaming or slander.
I broke up with my girlfriend because she was too dependent. She needed me at every hour of every second. And when I went to work or hung out with my friend, all hell broke lose with her.
This is a sign that it's okay to say no. You have permission to protect your boundaries. Stretch the corners of your mouth up. You are enough. You are worthy. You are loved. You can do hard things. 💗 Dr. Liz
i remebember having someone who used to manipulate me into doing what they wanted(they would say they're gonna leave me if I dont), i also used to emerge my personality and be too emotionally hungry. it's a big difference now that i'm aware of it and not around them anymore. take care you guys♡ edit: i just realized we were on and off for 4years and 5months, that's such a long time omg🥲
People who emotionally hungry need an emotional snack
This is an amazing video, I really needed to watch this. I’ve been stuck in the pain of losing my husband. I used to think breakups were easy, but now that my husband has left me, I feel completely broken. I can’t even eat or take care of our kids! I need him back so much. I’ve tried everything to get him back, but he doesn’t want our marriage anymore
Hi Time Traveller Again 👋
I find it sad that nowadays toxic relationships are more than healthy relationships
i just blocked him after a year of friendship and being on and off. he would brag about making people cry, and whenever i would confront him about his wrongdoings, he would break down and play victim, often threatening to hurt himself. i was vulnerable with him and told him about my trauma, and his immediate reaction was to make fun of what happened and begged for me to tell him more even though i voiced that i felt uncomfortable. his reaction to me cutting him off was absolutely awful, he played the victim even though i said that it was all my fault to protect him. i'm lonely now. have no one to talk to. no one truly knows me. this is going to be a long journey. edit: 3 months later, 18th October 2021. to be honest i'm not very fulfilled with life, things that interested me no longer bring me joy. but i'm so much happier out of that relationship and haven't contacted him since. i'm looking forward to my journey in getting the help and love that i deserve. i am a must stronger person, and i know my worth. thank you to all that replied to my comment, your words really helped me so so so much.
