I woke up with the realization this morning that I need to work through my resentments - and yet I'm scared to let them go as well because they protect me and make me feel safe at the moment. I realize that is very limiting.
So, I'd like to ask some questions if anyone cares to share - as I dip my toe into the 'waters of forgiveness'....
1/ Has anyone here overcome the majority of their resentments in the M towards their S?
I'm not talking about resentment for the BIG things (OW/OM, EA - etc.), but for the little things? Like, those things that you feel like a broken record about and that were rarely (if ever) addressed in the R.
1a/If so, how did you overcome?
2/ When you overcame a particular resentment, how did that affect your S? Did they even know you were working on sorting out that resentment?
3/ I'm also wondering about the connection between boundaries (deal-breaker type boundaries) and resentment.
