Ep 117: Misery Loves Mediocrity: Why We'd Rather Be Unhappy Than Uncomfortable
from Unf*ck Your Relationships · host Michelle Panning
Can I be honest with you? I think you're lying to yourself. If you think you're all right with a mediocre life, you're lying to yourself. If you think you're content with a lukewarm relationship because it's "better than nothing," you're lying to yourself. If you think you're okay with being unhappy about who and how you are…you're LYING TO YOURSELF. Not only that…I think you like being lied to. We are conditioned to put on a happy face and say everything is fine, even when it's not. And we'd rather be fucking MISERABLE than admit that something has to change, because change is uncomfortable. Change takes work. Change is uncertain, and fuuuck, we hate uncertainty. I used to be where you are, until I got sick of pretending. Until I got sick of settling for a less-than life. Getting honest with yourself is scary. But what's waiting for you on the other side…you can't even imagine how incredible it is.
