I have a friend showing contempt towards me but still keeps coming around me and it’s only getting worse. I figured she was having a bad week or it would eventually stop. I figured I’d address it soon then it ramped up and I just don’t have room for it in my life. She’s showing me who she is. My gut is telling me to completely distance. Am I wrong in thinking this?

What if they take “ownership” but victimize themself. Saying things like I suck, im the worst, and then you almost have to feel bad for them ?

Are you still in the relationship?

I was this person. I had to re evaluate my life. Take a year to myself and restructure myself. Learn to tale ownership and stop lying. It took me losing everything I had to do this life change. Losing her changed me for the better. Just wish I could've done it before she left

Don't feel bad. Let them own it. It's not your responsibility to protect them from the consequences of their actions, and that includes protecting them from the shame they feel. Don't feed into the manipulation. You can have some compassion while still allowing them to own their behavior. Don't let them get a pass because they are acting pitiful. It's a way to try to manipulate your emotions.

That’s not them taking ownership. I know what you mean my mother is borderline and she’ll go through these big speeches about how she’s a terrible person and everything is her fault etc it’s the same thing but with different words - not taking ownership

Can doing the resentment course make a difference if only one person in the relationship completes it? Or is it recommended for both parties to participate?

It's definitely a toolkit that can help you regardless of whether you're doing it together or not. But the program is designed to be done as a couple. Would you benefit either way? Yes, for sure.

I understand contempt when its coming from resentment but What is the cause of contempt when its coming from an emotionally immature person who lashes out at you simply for being yourself or stating an opinion or asking a question they find to be stupid? Especially if you havent done anything to cause the other person to resent you? Is that fixable? Can contempt come from unresolved childhood trauma in that instance?
