What to do when they don't see an issue with their behaviour

What do you do when someone refuses to see the issue with their behaviour?In Snack Size Deep Dive 11, we unpack one of the most frustrating relationship dynamics: repeatedly explaining your feelings to someone who won’t take accountability.Whether it’s a partner, friend, or family member, being dismissed, gaslit, or met with defensiveness can slowly erode your self-trust. You start questioning yourself. You wonder if you’re too sensitive, you over-explain, you shrink yourself. But here’s the uncomfortable truth: Sometimes they genuinely don’t understand. Sometimes they understand and don’t care enough to change. And sometimes not seeing the issue protects their identity.In this episode, we explore:Why people avoid accountabilityEmotional unavailability and fragile self-imageHow lack of accountability causes cognitive dissonance Gaslighting (and why it isn’t always intentional)The emotional impact of chronic dismissalWhen to stop explaining and start decidingHow to set boundaries that don’t require agreementThe difference between lack of awareness and lack of willingnessThis episode is about self-respect, emotional regulation, boundaries, and choosing what you’re willing to accept in relationships.Tell us why you love the show!Support the show🎙️NEW EPISODES EVERY MONDAY AND THURSDAY!!
