Immaturity

February 1st, 2018

At the very foundation of toxic people is emotional immaturity. These people never grew up, and are now unable to hold onto themselves in any way that would allow them to react to life’s hardships with patience, grace or composure. In response to not getting their way, they become defiant, passive-aggressive, cutting, pathetic and argumentative. When we see these tantrums and histrionics, it is easy to feel confused and bullied by them, but in reality we must ask ourselves, “at what age is this type of response appropriate?” That question will give you the answers you are looking for immediately. It will cut through all of your confusion. Toxic people tantrum, rage, or become pathetic as way to get us to stop confronting and pushing the truth about them. They do it as away to get us to say sorry to keep the peace. More often than not, this works for them. Most healthy people want peace so badly that we give up our own truth for it. Immaturity gets toxic people nowhere once we realize that this is at the core of how they operate. Sadly, their bullish immaturity allows them to avoid ever having to take responsibility, so we must take ownership of our own lives and get as far away from them as possible.
