Feeling validated, appreciated, safe and loved is something everyone deserves. Ever since I got into this relationship I promised myself to give him everything I also deserve. I wouldn’t say im the perfect partner cause I’m not, but I know how to love my partner and I know how to make someone feel validated 💖 Small things can change your entire relationship. Something I hear a lot is that there is a lack of communication in a lot of relationships, but sometimes you just have to break down the issue. What is the meaning behind not showing interest, or the deeper layer behind not wanting to communicate? Start with a simple question daily, putting your phone away, actively listening, a goodmorning, a “what are your plans for today?”. Communication doesn’t have to be hard or complicated but you have to be willing to put in energy if you want to make something work. 💆🏻♀️🙏

@llcoolj I don’t need anybody to validate me, I validate myself. Do you need outside validation? #llcoolj 🎥 @clubshayshay

Emotionally immature parents (EIP) haven’t had an opportunity to fully mature and develop a sense of self. So, they subconsciously seek their children to be their supply of self worth. The child’s “job” becomes to validate the parent. Or respect the parent typically through: pleasing (fawning) obedience. What’s missing is that respect is mutual and comes from safety— not fear and demands. This leads to adult patterns of: over-explaining, people pleasing, social anxiety, and hypervigilance.

I often get asked, “But Benjamin! How do I validate myself in dating? How do I give that to myself?” Flirty, there are lots of ways and one strategy to not make excuses for the people you date. If he cancelled plans last minute or took too long to text back, try not to make excuses as to why. If he’s dodging the commitment talk, but you’re ready, don’t rationalize his indecision (which really isn’t indecision at all). You see where I’m going with this! You can validate yourself by letting go of the excuses we often give ourselves (and them) when something isn’t right, but we find a was to justify it.

🗣️ I VALIDATE myself based on the FACT I CHOOSE to CREATE POSITIVE DAILY HABITS ‼️ 🗣️ What do you VALIDATE yourself with? Is it EXTERNAL? Is it your job ? Is it money? Is it your muscles? Is it your looks? Whatever you VALIDATE yourself with WILL be what OTHERS VALIDATE you with

“I am at a point now where I can validate myself and I don’t need that from other people.”

Is this you? How to feel heard 👇👇👇 If you’re struggling to get the emotional support deserve try these on for size: 1. I’m not feeling heard right now, I feel like we are jumping to the solutions before the entire problem has been outlined. I’d appreciate it if you could hear me out completely. 2. It would help me more if you could give me a moment to explain myself/the situation in full before responding with solutions or advice. 3. I’m not looking for a solution/advice right now. What would be super helpful is a listening ear from a trusted person to validate how hard this situation is. 4. I know you’re trying to help me feel better, thank you. Right now I feel like we are rushing to solve this when I’d appreciate it if you could listen to understand me & this situation completely. 5. I value your input & I know I can trust you but right now I’m looking for support & understanding not advice on what to do. 6. When you jump into solving/solutions mode, it makes me feel like my emotions don’t matter. 7. Is it ok if I finish explaining myself before we switch gears to brainstorm solutions? 8. Hold on, I’m not done yet. Can I please finish? I want to make sure you get the key details. Remember people want to feel heard, understood & validated. If they haven’t asked for your advice, ask them if they want it first. Try validating: 1. That sounds hard, what are you going to do? 2. I would feel angry if that happened to me. 3. Tell me more about x? 4. I can’t believe all this has happened. 5. If you’re looking for solutions or practical support let me know. 6. Thank you for trusting me & confiding in me, that’s a lot to process. Let me know if this helps Sending 💕 Dr M Repost @thepsychologistandme #relatable #validation #friendship #listeningskills

So here’s what I did that first date… Matt and I had been strictly platonic friends for months, but that day, as we walked around downtown, something shifted. About an hour in, I started realizing how good it felt to be around him. I was laughing, feeling open, genuinely myself. And right then, without hesitation, I looked over at him and said, “I just want you to know, I’m starting to like you beyond just being a friend.” He literally glitched. I could see him mentally scrambling, trying to process it all, and I followed up with, “This doesn’t mean anything has to change right now. I just want you to know this is going well, and I’m liking you.” And you know what he said? Absolutely nothing. He just smiled, took it in, and we kept walking, talking, flowing. And no, I didn’t spiral, replaying every word or analyzing his lack of response. I didn’t second-guess myself because he didn’t immediately say it back. Why? Because I was fully secure in my own feelings. I didn’t need him to reciprocate for me to feel okay. I didn’t need his approval to validate my feelings. I was just being me, honestly and unapologetically. Most people don’t realize: we’re often taught that playing it cool, being mysterious, or acting aloof is the way to spark a flame. But that approach only builds a fragile foundation. True, secure attachment isn’t about manipulating reactions or waiting for someone else to make the first move. It’s about standing firmly in who you are, sharing what you feel, and not needing someone else to mirror it back for you to feel complete. That moment? It ended up being one of the reasons Matt fell in love with me. My fierceness to be myself, my willingness to own my feelings without expecting anything in return. It challenged him to do the same. That honesty created a foundation where games had no place, where we could build something real. —— If you’re ready to build that kind of secure attachment, drop a ‘SECURE’ in the comments. I’ll send you the 10 questions I asked myself to create a secure attachment within. 💌

You shouldn’t look for outside validation, validate yourself and get over what others think of you. #reels #crack #myself #up
