ACCEPTING THE BARE MINIMUM IN A RELATIONSHIP
from PATTY SHOP PODCAST Hosted by Anthony Meade
In a culture where hyper-independency is expected and co-dependency is discouraged, the line between “asking too much” and “expecting too little” can become blurred. You’ve found yourself questioning if you were asking too much of your partners, or if your expectations were perfectly reasonable, more than once. Many of you have been labelled as a door mat, a pushover, anxiously-attached, and co-dependent,You’ve often found myself confused regarding what I have the right to ask for in a relationship. You’ve been left wondering if you should just fulfill the need on your own — is that what I’m supposed to do? — or if asking for more would be standing up for myself and an act of self-respect. Dating is confusing, exciting, difficult, and not black and white; there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to love. Every individual is unique, and every relationship is unique. Special thanks to our guests this week Liana and Bianca for stopping by.
