Does it rile you up when somebody feels sorry for you?
What happens in the background?
Feeling not good enough, weak, embarrassed?
These are the moments when my strong woman syndrome may kick in.
I got a message from an old acquaintance who was reading a social media profile.
He found it sad that I went through tough times and glad I found my path.
I was like; wtf? Why would you be sad about me??!! How dare you?
A green-eyed monster was about to wake up and I practically talked it down:
Well, this means that the hero`s journey formula that your coach asked you to bring into your profile does work. Yay.
He says so many nice things, he even took the time to read your full profile. Why did you get stuck on this one word; sad.
Why should someone thinking you had a sad story push your buttons; get over yourself.
The main mask that steps right in for me is pride. I feel sooooo proud, and it feels very off to be in such a situation.
What is your auto-response when someone thinks it is sad about you? Or better yet; what activates your strong woman syndrome?
