codependency and transactional friendships (grateful for boundaries with friends) Have you ever been in a friendship, a great friendship, you give a lot of yourself, your always there for that friend and then they are not there for you. today I am grateful for codependency and transactional friendships I found myself in a fair bit of depression from Thursday through to Monday, and it had various reasons, but one of them was a disconnect that I had with a particular friend. We would connect every day on Facebook, and she had put a boundary in place. I kind of knew the boundary had been put in place, but she did not communicate that it was happening. The reason this was such a problem for me, was because I'm the sort of person who will put a lot of energy into a friendship, into a relationship. I understand my friends, I know what they like, I know what they need, and I do like to give of myself, but then I get this expectation that if I give to you, you should give back to me. I've always been like this; I've never really understood to the degree, till maybe the last couple of years when I started learning about the psychology going on in my head. There's' nothing intrinsically wrong with this transactional thinking, I mean everyone does it, we all get into transactions in relationships, we all get co-dependant in a relationship, it's just that, it's at a toxic level is when it becomes a problem. today, I'm grateful understanding toxic levels in transactional friendships and co-dependence What are you grateful for?
