I never thought I was. Of all the codependent traits, I fell more into the controller category and that definitely didn’t please many people in my life, so I didn’t think it fit. 🤷♀️
Boy was I wrong!
I had no idea how much I sold myself out for love, acceptance, approval, connection – anything but abandonment – until I woke up and didn’t recognize myself. I had abandoned ME so much for so long in so many ways, I wasn’t sure who I even was anymore.
It’s those in-the-moment things that add up, like going-along-to-get- along, shutting down when we need to speak up, going out of our way or allowing things to happen that shouldn’t and then bitching about it when it does – those are all people-pleasing patterns.
That last one is when it gets so bad it turns into resentment, even if we don’t say the thing and just seethe under our breath. IYKYK
If any of that sounds familiar, you might have a people pleasing pattern you’re not even aware of. Or maybe you are aware, or you have some other pattern you’re ready to break through so you can start owning your damn life. Yep – you get to choose YOU, Love.
