True, at a point during all this for me, my therapist said to me, B, you keep saying the same thing to him over and over expecting a different response. But right now, it's like talking to a rock, ya know?
Here's the thing. She feels what she feels. Right or wrong, those are her feelings. And no amount of you telling her to accept responsibility for her actions or expecting her to change or feel differently is going to change that
So, since the only one you have control over is you, you CAN change how you react to those feelings.
I have to agree and I said it, too, that you, as we say in Brooklyn, were looking for a beat down.
Moving forward was never about her. It was always about you.
