Fear of causing others emotional pain
I'm afraid specifically of causing emotional pain in others, especially my significant other, and this inhibits my ability to even express what I would like if the other person might be hurt or even just disappointed by that possibility. I know that in general its a good thing to not want to hurt/disappoint people you love, but I also know that there needs to be a balance between this and being able to express yourself and be yourself. Furthermore I know that the fear is not always well-founded.
Hi there,
Thank you for your question.
I hope you find the 'Be More Tactful' program helps you open up more without fearing you'll hurt the other person.
Best wishes,
