[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was just going to say therapy will help. It’s rooted in people-pleasing. It sounds like he doesn’t want to disappoint them, so he’s trying to put off disappointing them as long as possible, even trying to buy himself time to desperately find a way to make everyone happy. He needs to learn that this is not healthy for him. It also is dragging out the worst parts of the situation. It is okay to say no. It is better for everyone to just say no. He is going to feel better, you are going to feel better, even his parents will do better when they learn the new normal. He can do. He’s worth it, he just has to learn that he can prioritize what he wants too. [/quote] OP here. Thanks for this reply. I actually think you hit the nail on the head. He's a huge people pleaser, especially when it comes to family. He's not at all this way at work and is usually abrupt with his employees, so I'm not sure how he got in this dynamic with his parents.
