About that last one , if you have kids in the house , it ’ s much harder to just stop , because someone has to take care of the house and kids . So instead of stopping , you end up ranting that nobody cares about you , you ’ re the only one doing anything , and you might as well be the maid !
Many people in this situation also try to convince their partner to contribute and do what needs to be done … only to have the nagging , pushing , and policing backfire , so that you end up doing it yourself anyway … and feeling resentful .
These old and broken tactics will never give you the unconditional love , connection , support and harmonious household you want .
In fact , as we have proven , this old approach in relationships actually breaks down relationships , even though people certainly don ’ t mean to do so .
If any of this sounds familiar , please hear me when I tell you that it ’ s not your fault !
There ’ s nothing wrong with you and there ’ s nothing wrong with your partner . This dynamic is just a SYMPTOM of the old , broken relationship paradigm we ’ ve been handed .
