Communication
July 18th, 2018
In order to get what you want, you have to say what you want. Communication is everything. If you are with someone who absolutely will not work with you, only works against you, is competitive not collaborative then you are with someone who is toxic. With a toxic person you are always wrong, you are the person who is going to have to change, and yet there is no amount of change you can do that will satisfy them. What toxic people love is to break you down, convince you that you are the problem, and watch you make all the efforts at change. There is no way to navigate communication with them because they aren’t rational people. They do all they can to deflect the issues off of themselves and onto us, and they do this with such precision that we end up off our point of contention and confused about who we are and if our feelings are valid. There is no path to happiness, to clarity or to ever feeling important or validated when in a relationship with a toxic person.
