3 Tips to Overcome Passive-Aggressiveness - Commitment Phobia Education

When I was younger, I remember how with many of my girlfriends I would, especially at the beginning of a relationship, try to please them in any way possible and do whatever they wanted. For example, I would end up going to films that I didn’t like, to places that were not too interesting to me, or I would stay quiet whenever I had an opinion that went against theirs. As the relationship developed, this pressure of not expressing myself would build up and I would start becoming more passive-aggressive, i.e., doing things in an angry or reluctant manner, and as a result, withdrawing a lot more often.

I then started becoming more sensitive to being asked favors or in general to do things together. I didn’t want myself to seem weak by doing everything they wanted, so I needed to show them wrong and prove that I was strong as well, and being passive-aggressive is the only way that I knew. This gave me back a sense of power and control, at least emotionally, in the relationship, but it had the effect of distancing us in the relationship. After understanding passive-aggressiveness and the strategies that I share with you in this video, I am now able to feel a sense of peace regardless of whether I do what I want, or whether I do what my partner wants. Discover these strategies so that you can also feel this peace and reduce your passive-aggressiveness!
