Sometimes, someone makes promises… but never truly keeps them. Not out of malice, but because they prioritize what seems most advantageous at the time. For you, this creates an unstable relationship where words never stick. Little by little, doubt creeps in: can you really rely on them?

Others, on the contrary, constantly seek admiration. A neutral comment becomes criticism, silence becomes judgment. This hypersensitivity refocuses the conversation on their need for reassurance, leaving little room for your own emotions.

Why these signals deserve your attention

When a relationship makes you doubt yourself, when you apologize for no reason, or when you feel “too sensitive,” take a moment to observe what’s happening. These repeated behaviors can create a heavy atmosphere, even unintentionally. Identifying them doesn’t mean cutting ties, but understanding what’s draining your mental energy so you can readjust your boundaries.

Sometimes, preserving inner peace simply begins with recognizing what no longer benefits us.
