what the fuck at all of these posts i’m seeing on my dash defending outright emotional manipulation and abuse in relationships in general.
if you are at a point in your relationship with someone where:
- they are openly (however passive aggressively) jealous about you spending time with people who aren’t them
- they demand your attention above everyone else’s or above other things you have going on in your life
- they force you to fulfill a quota of communication with them every day like communication with them is something you owe them instead of something that should come naturally for both of you
- you have to walk on eggshells around them to avoid making them angry at you
- they refuse to apologize for treating you badly because “they can’t help it”
- you feel guilty doing things that aren’t talking to them in case it upsets them
- if you are generally interacting with them out of a perceived obligation or fear of upsetting them rather than a genuine desire to speak to them
- A MULTITUDE OF REALLY UNHEALTHY SHIT
that is not healthy. that is not a sign of a healthy relationship. stop defending this shit.
