Thank you Lilie!

Great question! It is so hard to deal with situations like this, because everyone has different ideas of what feels like disrespect to them and what not. Sometimes if this happens to me and I’ve tried everything and my message/feelings/hurt still isn’t coming across, I make the choice to let go of that relationship. However, with some relationships this approach is easier than with others. For instance, with family ties this can be quite the challenge! In that case, it helped me to learn more about how the other person processes certain situations. But also clearly communicate my boundaries: “If you keep doing X, Y will be the consequence.” And then, of course sticking to that boundary, which is a whole other challenge!

The problem is how do you define disrespect. If I feel this and they do not. How do you make a stand. I’ve done the begging, the silence, the freezing, the shouting, the crying…..now I’m just out of words. But SOOOoo hurt. Over a small action. This person simply uses logic. Finds easiest path possible. Cannot visualise self in others place. Wonder if they are on the spectrum?
