    Handling Accusations That Feel Wrong

    Melhor citação de Handling Accusations That Feel Wrong

    “

    Validation isn't agreement—it's acknowledgment. You're not saying 'you're right that I don't care,' you're saying 'I can see that you feel uncared for, and that's a real and valid feeling.'

    ”

    Pergunta de entrada

    Managing conflict when I disagree with my husband's statements about me in arguments like that I don't care about his feelings or that I justify doing things that hurt his feelings like being out at a bar as he thinks that's what single girls should only do. And I heavily disagree.
