I appreciate your perspective, and I agree that personal accountability is a powerful tool for growth. Recognizing our role in patterns that don’t serve us can be eye-opening and ultimately empowering. That said, emotional unavailability in a partner isn’t always something we “train” them into—sometimes, it’s who they are from the start, and we only realize it after we’re already invested.

Healing is about learning, setting new standards, and choosing differently moving forward. It’s not about blaming ourselves or others but about growing from our experiences. Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I love engaging in these conversations. 💛
