Anyone else realize their "intensity" in relationships was actually just projection?
I’ve been working on my codependent tendencies and I had a massive realization about why I get "addicted" to people so fast. I’m not actually seeing them; I’m seeing my own unmet needs reflected back at me.
It’s like I’m looking at a mirror, not a human being. I’ve been researching how to "break the mirror" and actually see people for who they are.
