When You Can’t Give To Someone What They Want From You Emotionally…

When You Can’t Give To Someone What They Want From You Emotionally…
You may notice yourself feeling anxious, tight, or restless.
You might spiral into thoughts like:
“If I don’t give, I’ll be rejected.”
“If I don’t make them feel better, I’m failing.”
“Their emotions are my responsibility.”
I’ve noticed this in myself too.
That deep dysregulation when I can’t give to someone what they emotionally want from me.
It’s not a flaw.
It’s a sign of how deeply ingrained your emotional attunement is and how your nervous system has learned to prioritize others over yourself.
When your self-worth becomes entangled with meeting someone else’s needs, this dysregulation isn’t about the moment.
It’s about an old survival pattern being challenged.
Always remember that Love does not require self-abandonment.
You are allowed to hold space without absorbing their emotional weight.
You are allowed to say no. To not fix. To honor your energy.
That discomfort you feel—it’s not you failing.
It’s your body learning a new way of being.
A freer way. A truer way. A way back to yourself.
If this resonates and you’d like support reclaiming your emotional sovereignty, so that you can quit abandoning your own precious heart, I offer personalized coaching to help you shift these patterns and step into a love that nourishes you.
If you are ready to let this pattern go and lessen the weight on your heart,
