Summary: <p>I know. You don't want to be accused, or accuse yourself, of <strong>abandoning a person.</strong> You especially don't want to be accused of abandoning a person in need.</p><br><p><strong>#Hijackals are always in need: in need of you to use, misuse, and abuse. </strong>Does that make you want to stay? I hope not.</p><br><p>Would you tell your best friend to stay in a situation like yours? Hmmmm....pause for thought, right?</p><br><p>I'm Dr. Rhoberta Shaler, and I work with individuals and couples from many countries through videoconferencing and I say:</p><br><p><strong>"You cannot remain in a strained relationship with no conceivable healthy future out of a sense of duty, obligation, shame, or guilt." </strong></p><br><p>Do you understand that?</p><p>Will you allow yourself to believe that?</p><p>Will you, then, entertain the idea that guilt, obligation, and duty are NOT reasons to stay in an unhealthy relationship?</p><p>I hope so.</p><br><p>Today's episode is a little hard-hitting--maybe--but that may be what you need today. You may be in the excuse-making business, and there is no profit in that.</p><br><p>Got that? <strong>THERE IS NO PROFIT IN THE EXCUSE-MAKING BUSINESS! </strong></p><br><p>I want the best for you, and I'm here to help.
