Ep 217: Self-Abandonment in Relationships: How to Stop Betraying Yourself

from Unf*ck Your Relationships · host Michelle Panning

Not to break your entire self-image or whatever, but abandoning all your needs and desires for the sake of your partner actually doesn't make you a good person. Sorry not sorry. Sure, maybe it feels good to oh-so-f*cking-selflessly lay your needs down to fulfill your partner's instead. To be the "good girl." The "cool girl." To play the hero in his story. Right up until resentment starts burning so badly you think you've got a f*cking ulcer. Truthfully, self-abandonment is a relationship-killer. But it can be a subtle one, especially when you don't know what the fuck self-abandonment even LOOKS like. That's why I'm walking you through all the ways self-abandonment slinks out of the shadows and sets you on the path to complete relationship meltdown—and how to finally shine a light on it so you can clock it, own it, and clean it up. Martyrhood isn't a good look on you, babe. It's time you tried something new. WORK WITH MICHELLE: These aren't just retreats. These are where we turn your inner chaos into GOLD.
