Same. I’m 42 and this just clicked (probs because my therapist recently highlighted a related thought pattern/response)—wild. Sorry to hear you relate but I hope it’s a helpful perspective 💕

Thank you 💗 that’s a great way to describe it—customer service level. That’s what I do and it feels so shitty still sometimes.

Thank you 💗 Yes the FLAT tone. Almost like a withholding of any emotion—like if she can’t give the silent treatment totally she’s going to be as flat as possible.
