@drjulie: 👉 Do you ever feel like the only grown up in an adult relationship? Comment below. Here’s a few signs that you are dealing with someone who is emotional immature: 1. The relationship is like walking on eggshells, you have to second-guess your every move to avoid conflict. 2. Putting a foot wrong can lead to them lashing out in, often disproportionate rage. 3. In conflict, they might be vicious and aggressive, or switch to play a victim role, placing all responsibility on others to fix the situation for them. These are just some of the signs that might sound familiar. In all of these scenarios it is easy to get drawn into their patterns. But there *is* a way to step back without losing your compassion or your relationship. Follow the steps above and see if you can make this relationship more stable and peaceful. Remember, you are not trying to change them. That is not your job and sets you up with an unachievable task. 👉There is a whole chapter called “When it’s difficult to be with others” in my new book ‘Open When...’ It was an instant No.1 Sunday Times Bestseller and New York Times bestseller. Available for limited time with up to -48% discount. Also check out my million copy bestselling 1st book ‘Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before?’ Both are available in across the world in over 35 languages in audio and ebook. Both links in my bio. If you brought a copy of either thank you for the support 🙏
