[quote=Anonymous]There is someone I am close to that I keep slipping into a rescuer-victim relationship with. I am aware of it happening and try to stop us from going down that path. But it keeps happening. The person reaches out for help, I become the rescuer. And it just changes our whole dynamic in a way that I don’t think is healthy. I care about the person and want to help but want to do it while also empowering her. But there is a shift that happens- she starts talking like a little girl, and acts helpless, and becomes the “victim”. How do I stop this cycle? How do I help while not slipping into these roles?[/quote]
