159. Dealing with dismissive, defensive or emotionally immature partners
Update: 2025-10-31
Description
You’re all listening to this podcast because you’re perhaps aware your anxious mind is causing a lot, or some, problems and you want to take back control of your side of the equation.
But what happens if you’re doing all of that work - and your partner is continuously responding in ways that seem unsupportive, unkind, or pretty mean?
Maybe being dismissive of your feelings, getting defensive - even after you’ve worked really hard to approach them calmly, or perhaps even being quite harsh or unkind about what you’re struggling with.
In this episode I’m talking about:
- Dealing with dismissive and emotionally immature partners
- Setting boundaries
- Validating yourself when they won’t
- And deciding if they’re the best partner for you
