It’s time for some tough love.
Everybody has at one time or another, and it certainly doesn’t warrant judgement or shame.
But why do you do it?
There’s a lot to unpack with that simple question.
Luckily, The List talked to world-renowned psychotherapist Hilary Silver to get the lowdown on this hot topic.
Needless to say, you’re in good hands with Silver, who’s got the no.
1 reason women ignore red flags.
“It’s our reading between the lines,” she explains.
“Your emotions are your greatest source of wisdom about who you are.
Your emotional world tells you everything you oughta know.”
Thus, you may tend to be afraid of your feelings and emotions and begin to shut them out.
What happens when you do that?
Your intuition takes a hit.
“Intuition is your emotional reaction to something you are experiencing.
It is your truth,” Silver told The List.
“If you are ignoring your truth, you will have anxiety every time.”
According to Silver, your mind wants what it wants the relationship.
You don’t want to be rejected or alone.
“If you do not want to listen, then you are in denial,” she said.
“And you do not want to listen because that truth means you will have to move on.
You have a difficult decision to make.”
