All right so now that I gave my thoughts on the matter right hand now it's your turn should we as a community gift of love in order to be better let me hear you
So I think the tough love could work on some people but maybe it could have like the opposite effect on the people so just kind of depends what you're you know talking to
No you really can't treat people as if they're all the same everyone receives lessons and love differently and it works for some people it doesn't work for others it doesn't work for me
I grew up very disconnected from people because of the whole Toughlove thing and now I have issues connecting with people so it should be assessed in every individual
And like I said I have issues I have trust issues I have codependency issues because of the emotional unavailability of the people who raise me who were supposed to be the leading example of what love really is
And now instead of driving you know under the support of a loving family or friends I have to figure shit out on my own and I'm really just trying to do the work to see that the world isn't so hard and an emotional
Let me go on record saying that I feel for you and I understand where you're coming from but at the same token you can't expect people to sugarcoat everything
I can definitely understand that you have trust issues when it comes to being emotionally unavailable but at the same token. People have to be real raw and authentic with you in order for you to understand.
I'm not saying that you should take the harsh words because they shouldn't be harsh with what they're saying But at the same token you can't expect them to sugarcoat what they're saying to you. They have to be real about it.
