We often hear that the feelings in the A are like an addiction, but you know what else produces the same feelings as an addiction.
If you guessed snooping you are correct. My MC and C both told me that snooping can be just as addictive as anything else like a real addiction.
that's why it's so hard to just stop or telling people to just stop isn't always enough. I mean tell you SO to just stop and A and see how hard that gets.
My MC told me that a person snoops when they are bored, tired, lonely, scared, or other similar emotions. They key is recognize when you are feeling those emotions and do something to either get you out of that emotion or take your mind off.
Also, the other part is that your W suspected you were snooping BECAUSE YOU WERE. It's not fun being accused of looking sneaky, suspicious, controlling and needy. But there is only one way to not have those accusations mean anything.
