Breaking The Cycle
@decoding_couples thank you! Such a powerful post
First Generation
Watched her parents walk on eggshells with each other and never talk about anything. Married a partner with volatile emotions and high conflict.
Second Generation
Practiced unbridled “honesty” as a protection mechanism and didn’t consider others emotions in her truth. Married a partner with passive communication style and uncomfortable with emotions in general.
Third Generation
Is watching her parents fight fair and practive relational autonomy. Sees and receives apologies when people mess up and gets to talk about any and all emotions. Dirty laundry aired. Is learning it’s okay to set boundaries and live your truth.
They repeat what we don’t repair. How you show up in your relationship now impacts the future blue print of who they love and how they love.
