[quote=Anonymous]I think I have evolved. As I mentioned in previous post I was codependent. I also think I enabled a lot of taking advantage and poor behavior. I have better boundaries now and I save my kindness and empathy for those who truly deserve it. I don't get sucked into dramas anymore. I reserve my energy for loved ones, not people who treat me terribly, but I am supposed to love and be a servant too because they are family. My elderly mother would tell you I am so mean for not meeting her every demand. I burned out from her years ago and learned yet another lesson in detachment and boundaries. I am in her life, but will no longer set myself on fire to keep her warm which makes me mean in her eyes, but no longer in mine.[/quote]
