[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's a good approach, especially if you struggle with trying to control people around you. However, that's never really been my problem. Actually, my problem is the inverse -- I find myself drawn to people who are somewhat controlling. I wonder if there is a "Let Them Theory" corollary for what to do when people in your life are always refusing to just let you do your thing? I guess just let them be mad when I do stuff they want to correct and tinker with.[/quote] That’s exactly right. Let them be mad. They can’t refuse to let you do your own thing unless they are subsidizing. They can make you fear the consequences to making them mad enough for YOU to prevent yourself from doing what you want. People can’t be controlling unless there is someone around allowing themselves to be controlled. Not victim blaming, just pointing out a possible pattern in case it makes sense to you.[/quote]
