Just seen a video where a girl said the real flex is training your mind to be stronger than your feelings and your boundaries to be strong than your empathy. At this point I clearly need that tatted on my forehead in bold print.
A narcissist's mindset: That didn’t happen, and if it did, it wasn't that bad. And if it was, it's not a big deal. And if it is, it's not my fault. And if it was, I didn't mean it. And if I did, you made me do it.
People who are emotionally immature or who lack emotional intelligence are often driven by unconscious unmet needs. Their idea of “being real”, “authenticity” and “speaking truth” lacks the awareness to see when they are overstepping, being invasive or violating others boundaries
if you lack emotional intelligence we will never work out fr. i’m not teaching you how to apologize, how to take accountability, or how to treat me with respect. these are basic qualities you should already possess before entering a relationship.
