Justification
Sep. 26th, 2002 02:00 pmIt was good last night to get encouragement from my therapist about an issue that occurred this weekend with someone close to me, or who I thought was close to me.
I laid down boundaries after an issue had occurred, and the snap that came back basically showed me that my boundaries meant squat to this person. The therapist said it sounded like the person was unreliable, as well as immature, and that I had done the right thing by laying down boundaries about the issue at hand. Of course she also said that the weeekend in general was good, though I have more work this week to do. Now if I can just feel good inside about the boundary I set, and not feel like it was my fault (because it wasn't).
BTW, heres a question for everyone else, rather 2 questions-
1)What makes you beautiful to yourself?
2) what makes me beautiful to you? (if anything.. I understand if nothing does)
Will I be taking these answers back to the therapist? Probably not unless I see them in myself as things that make me beautiful.
Okay, off you go everyone, and I'll post my response just before therapy next week. :)
