maybe it was the wording
being called a "promising young woman" hits different to someone saying "she'll go far"
When's the last time you've heard of a "promising old bat"?
Loool. TC that really stuck with your unconsciousness. Why that word?
It's a good movie anyways
literally watched that tonight because of this lol
@chai Look at the feeling you had in that moment. Try to evoke it. Feel it in your whole body. What is the feeling? Is it just one feeling or are there others mixed in as well? Name it and stay on that feeling. Take time, at least 1-2 minutes just feeling the present emotion. Then: Where have you felt that feeling before? Where were you? What happened? Feel the feeling while you imagine your former self in that moment of the past. Feel the corresponding emotion of the past in whatever situation comes up from the depth of your mind. Recognize the desires and basic needs that were hurt in that moment and then give yourself from the past what you needed. It was probably respect, acceptance and love or some shit like this. Probably some shit with your parents. Be kind to yourself. This shit you are feeling is obviously some deeper shit from the past, it isn't at all about what just happened. Good luck.

why couldn't it just be to do with the situation? ofc if certain things tend to upset me then they probably also would have in the past but that doesn't mean I got angry with a guy calling me a promising young woman because you dad also didn't respect me beyond my role as a woman. I can dislike both seperately, I'm not hung up on the past. I think the fact that I do give myself that respect now is why I got noticably (to me) annoyed

It is never seperated. We are the sum of our experiences.
