Keep in mind that there are people who do fall in love with someone who is outside their regular “type” and they still will naturally make them feel chosen. Because a “type” that is rooted in care and depth goes beyond the surface.

A person who is intentionally gaslighting you is banking on three things to happen and the most important one is: that your attachment to them will override your threat response.

Not everyone is going to have the exact same skill sets for conflict resolution. But in order for healthy conflict resolution to happen, there has the “want” to learn those skills and the ability (time, effort and energy) to put into the ex*****on.

Sometimes people resolve cognitive dissonance by lowering their expectations. Instead of changing their behaviors or the situation, they adjust their beliefs so the situation feels easier to tolerate.

The dissonance feels awful because it forces you to make a choice you might not be ready for. Growth happens when you sit with it for a little longer, and let yourself rest in the contradiction before changing your values.

Cognitive dissonance is when the way that you’re behaving doesn’t line with your values. This can look like being in a relationship that isn’t fulfilling, when you know exactly what healthy looks like. So instead of making hard decisions, you tell yourself that everyone has problems.

This can look like a valuing kind kindness, but justifying treating others poorly because they may look and live their life differently than you - so you rationalize the mistreatment by saying it’s deserved.

We are wired to want to reduce the tension, but when we are not ready to change our behaviors, we end up, changing our beliefs. This is something that can hurt us in the long-term because that tension never really goes away. It just becomes easier to tolerate.

Paying attention to patterns can save you from a lot of heart ache - and drawn out conversations. Allow character patterns to reveal themselves without your rescuing - what do you notice then?

When someone is dishonest, the hardest part is the confusion it creates inside you. Healing happens when you stop trying to reconcile their words with your reality and start trusting what you know.
