Neglected child in an adult body…

 A neglected child in an adult body may:

  • Put up with being hurt in the name of love
  • Attract emotionally unavailable partners
  • Tolerate abuse in order to avoid rejection
  • Sacrifice their personal values to try to fit in
  • Feel responsible for other people’s happiness
  • Suffer in silence due to hyper-independence

Well, that was pretty much me in my younger days. Even with therapy, it took years to learn how to have my own back. I finally got to the point, however, where I realized I’d rather be alone that be in the wrong relationship, compromising my well being. Just sayin’ :) Hugs and good luck. XO

Blessings,
