Going For The Gotcha: The Big Damaging Difference Between Verifying and Validating Your Partner

Are you wrong every time you turn around? Does your partner–or mother–have to win in every conversation? Someone who has to be right all the time is verifying, not validating. That can not only be infuriating and frustrating, it’s nasty! Sound familiar? Is there someone in your life who always thinks they have the facts. They remember events better than you. Know what you should do?That’s gaslighting! When another person wants to define your reality for you–tell you what you want, think, need, feel, remember, that’s gaslighting. They want to be in control of your experiences and responses in life, and that is taking away a basic right you have! Oxford dictionary: Verify: to make sure or demonstrate that something is true, accurate, justifiedValidate: to recognize or affirm the worth of a person or their feelings or opinions; cause a person to feel valued or worthwhile Big difference! Are you asking “What’s going on in my relationships?” This could be it. Get tips for making it stop.

Your Partner Is NOT Your Project!

You’ll never have the partnership you want if you continue to see your partner as a project.You’ll never be loved when your partner wants to fix or change you.BIG PROBLEMS! The three essential elements in a healthy relationship all need equal consideration for their well-being: 2 Me’s and 1 WE! Too often, those elements are not considered equally. Each “ME” wants the floor, and the “WE” takes a constant back seat. That won’t work because it will all be a struggle–a power struggle. That creates tension and stress which produce anxiety. No one does well when those things are prevalent! Today’s topic highlights an underlying issue in relationships in distress: one partner sees their partner as a project. Remember Episode 115 about the 3 MUST-HAVES For a Healthy Adult Relationship? If not, I invite you listen to that episode. If you did, you’ll remember that one MUST-HAVE is equality. That’s simply not present when you think you have the right to “fix” your partner. Your partner cannot be a partner when you are treating them like a project. Take stock now. What’s going on in your relationship? I’m always here to help.

Whether you go to a business setting or work from home, you will occasionally meet difficult, toxic people who are dedicated to putting you down and wearing you down. Michele PW shares her experience as a young copywriter and how it impacted her for years before she recovered true trust in herself. Toxic workplaces abound.

Things can change before there are too lasting effects, if you get help early.

Recognizing Narcissistic Contempt: Nasty Ways Hijackals Demean, Dismiss & Discount You.

You know that look, that jerky look of superiority that #Hijackals give you? I call it The Hijackal Smirk. It’s that look of disdain, disrespect, and “I’m superior and you are a fool” that Hijackals are infamous for. Got it? Contempt is lethal, hurtful, demoralizing, and a much deeper emotion that fleeting ones that we all have during the day. It is more complex. Contempt is the opposite of empathy and compassion. Contempt actually invalidates others: suggests that they have no good right to take up space or draw breath except to do my bidding. Have you ever felt that from your partner, parent, ex, or sibling? That’s contempt. I like the great thought that Tim Otten put into his paper for Tilburg University on “Conceptualizing Contempt.” His final conclusion for a definition of contempt was: “[Contempt is] a negative feeling with a downward social comparison wherein one feels superior and judges the other as inferior. One thinks of the other as incompetent, worthless, and one has no respect or appreciation for the other. This goes accompanied by behavior aimed to socially exclude and derogate the other.” YUCK! You don’t deserve to be treated that way. If this sounds at all familiar, let’s talk soon and sort this out. (P.S. Your kids deserve a better model, too. right?) Big hugs!RhobertaHIGHLIGHTS OF TODAY’S EPISODE:Why contempt is lethal, hurtful and demoralizingHow to recognize contemptHow disgust, anger, disdain, and disrespect add up to contemptContempt can include irrational responses to other groups of peopleContempt is constant underlying hostilityThe Gottman Institute, 1993 – “Contempt is the best predictor of divorce.” Find out why.

STOP HOPING! Why You’ll Never Be Able To Create Emotional Intimacy With A Narcissistic Hijackal

You long to be known, seen, heard, acknowledged, approved of and accepted. Those are the very things that a person with narcissistic or anti-social tendencies will not give you. That’s how they manipulate you. You want those things and they pretend, suggest, or promise them. You know now that you’re not going to receive them.I hate to have to be so strong, but it’s essential: STOP HOPING! That person who manipulated and love-bombed you into falling in love with them is a mirage, a charade, a facade, a chameleon. That person is made-up and put on. That’s not the real person. If you keep hoping that that mythical first-date person is real, you’ll keep thinking that if only you could find the right formula while making yourself into a pretzel–that person would return. You know that you only see that person now when the Hijackal is really afraid of losing you, or really wanting something you don’t want to give them, right? Sad, but true! That’s why today’s episode is SO IMPORTANT! Good people hold out hope that difficult, toxic people will change. It seldom happens….and, I mean REALLY SELDOM! They will make some surface changes for awhile, but their basic nature most often wins out and they go back to their damaging ways. Yep! That’s the bottom line: stop hoping, OK? Big hugs!RhobertaHIGHLIGHTS OF TODAY’S EPISODE:Why Hijackals cannot be emotionally intimateThe difference between being proximate and being intimateWhy you’re desire for intimacy is their opportunity to weaponize your vulnerabilitesDon’t mistake the desire for control with the desire to know you betterImportant understanding of the psychological definitions of intimacyWhy emotional intimacy requires the emotional safety you’ll never have around a #narcissist, a @HijackalWant clarity, insights, strategies, and support from me, Dr. Rhoberta Shaler? We can talk: Introductory session for new clients, $97CONNECT WITH ME: I invite you to like my pages and follow for further help with recognizing toxic relationships, realizing their impact, realigning your life, and recovering your self-confidence and ability to love and trust again.FOLLOW DR.

How To Feel More Confident In Your Decision-Making Guest: Mary Goulet

When you’re with a toxic person, you recognize that they love to keep you in uncertainty, on edge, and hyper-vigilant. Recognize that? Do you find your shoulders creeping up to your earlobes when you’re around the #Hijackal? When that is so, you lose energy, and the stress makes decision-making difficult, right? You second-guess yourself. You argue with yourself. You get quickly exhausted, and decisions are postponed. Today, Mary Goulet is here to offer hope…and strategies. We talk about how to get back in touch with your own feelings, intuition, or gut instinct. That sometimes gets covered up by all the “noise” in a toxic relationship, right? Mary Goulet says, “Your gut is always a statement: do, don’t do, or delay.” Let her suggestions get you back in touch with what’s best for you, and how let your body tune in and tell you. Decision-making? Mary says your gut is courage-based. That’s good news, for a start! I think you’ll find this to be a very insightful interview.

How Parenting Your Partner Ruins Relationships & Desire for Intimacy

So exasperating! Your partner seems like an extra child. Not what you signed up for, right!And, no amount of pointing out his/her failures, incompetencies, or lack of thought seems to change things, either.Infuriating!OK…I understand, but it’s definitely not going to help if you are viewing your partner as an extra child. That alone needs your immediate attention!If you actually treat your partner as an extra child–giving direction, finding fault, ridiculing, shaming, and blaming–your relationship will always be lacking in those three MUST-HAVES: equality, reciprocity, and mutuality. It will always be frustrating, infuriating, and unsatisfying.And, the bedroom? Going to consistently be contentious. No desire because there’s not respect. It’s all going to go sideways, and I give you some pointed examples of why in this episode.So, if you’re unhappy in your relationship, it could be that this episode can change all that as you understand the impossible dynamics of parenting your partner as a primary process. Sure, we are occasionally that parental figure that makes the bad go away for each other, that soothes the bruises and bumps. That’s great.It’s when the primary attitude of an attempt to be a partner is “It feels like I have an extra child” is in place, then everything else slowly disintegrates.Listen and I’m sure it will makes sense to you. Good news: this can change!Big hugs!RhobertaHIGHLIGHTS OF TODAY’S EPISODE:How you damage your relationship when you act like your partner’s parentWhy you feel resentment when you feel you have to parent your partnerWhat ‘parenting’ your partner may look/soundWhy behaving like a parent to your partner builds resentmentWhy you don’t want to sleep with someone who treats you like a childHow to see the contrasts and changeHow to change and improve your relationship …and, get the spark back, too.Want clarity, insights, strategies, and support from me, Dr. Rhoberta Shaler? We can talk: Introductory session for new clients, $97CONNECT WITH ME: I invite you to like my pages and follow for further help with recognizing toxic relationships, realizing their impact, realigning your life, and recovering your self-confidence and ability to love and trust again.FOLLOW DR.

Women! What To Do When You Feel You’re Not Enough Guest: Audrey Hope

For women to be in their power does not mean they are seeking power over other humans! It’s an inside job! Even though women have made strides towards equality for all humans, there are still many ways to address. Today, we’re talking about the internal journey of finding our sense of self, getting in touch with how we may not be being our own best friends! How do you feel when you hear the term, “self-love?” Does it sound like how you feel, or does it sound like something obvious or foreign? Sometimes, I think it has been used to the point that people hearing it don’t take it in, so we’ve addressed that today. And, what it means. How about women’s feminine spiritual power? Intrigued?

9 Ways to Tell If Your Relationship Is A Healthy Slow Cooker Or A Hijackal Pressure Cooker

Who wants to live in a pressure cooker? No one goes out and says, “I want to live with anxiety, hyper-vigilance, stress, and uncertainty. Give me that relationship!” Well, no one who cares about themselves does, right? Today, I’m using the contrasts between a slow cooker and a pressure cooker to highlight just what I mean. Most of us have one or the other–maybe, both–in our kitchens. We know what they do. Have you ever thought about slow cookers and pressure cookers in terms of how relationships start, grow, cook, or burn? It makes it quite clear! Healthy relationships grow. They’re gently creating depth of flavor, slowly. #Hijackal relationships degrade and love to reduce even the strongest fiber to nothing. Which relationship sounds better to you? Less heat over more time to savor the flavor? Or, greater heat over less time to break things down? Are you genuinely captivated by your partner, or feeling controlled and a captive? Big difference! Think deeply about these points today, even though you may think they are presented in a more lighthearted way. These are important distinctions that can lead to you being more able to discern whether your relationship has hope for being healthy. You need to know that!
