Is It an Active Self Betrayal?
I think we often talk about it as people pleasing and think, oh, well, you know, I do this because I want to be polite. When you reframe that as an active self betrayal, I realize that being excessively agreeable anyway is an integrity violation. And so the way I would surmise it is the cost of these self-patrials of a reduced relationship with others is a smaller life. That's a smaller personal life but it's a smaller communal life too.
