Let’s sit with this for a moment: someone is saying that two different women (possibly in different contexts or relationships with that person) are “pathogenically jealous.” That’s a strong and clinical-sounding accusation. The question becomes: Is it actually about those women? Or is there something deeper going on? 💡 Is it possible both women have the same “problem”? Yes, in… Read More There’s a reason for their behavior
