I'm willing to at least hear out most of the "xyz plot point is heavily tied to abc cultural context" brands of posts but the "wwx isn't meant to be read as morally gray" and "the western fandom made up Sizhui being wangxian's son" brands of post make me feel like my cultural ignorance is being used to gaslight me

Developing New Relationship Habits

Now that you can identify emotionally mature people, there's one last piece of the relationship puzzle to address: your own behavior. In this final section, we'll take a brief look at some new approaches on your part that can make your relationships more genuine and reciprocal. You can work on these actions to help your relationship flourish. After all, improving your own ability to act in an emotionally mature way in as important contribution to having the relationships you want.

Exercise: Exploring New Ways of Being in Relationships

Let's create a profile of emotional maturity that you can work toward. The following list presents a picture of how an emotionally mature person might interact and behave in relationships. Read through the following list of new behaviors, beliefs, and values and choose a few to practice. Just pick one or two at a time, and be gentle with yourself as you work on them. Some might be harder than others.

Being Willing to Ask for Help

I'll ask for help whenever I need to.

I'll remind myself that if I need something, most people will be glad to help if they can.

I'll use clear, intimate communication to ask for what I want, explaining my feelings and the reasoning for my request.

I'll trust that most people will listen if I ask them to.

Being Myself, Whether People Accept Me or Not

When I state my thoughts clearly and politely, without malice, I won't try to control how people take it.

I won't give more energy than I really have.

Instead of trying to please, I'll give other people true indication of how I feel.

I won't volunteer for something if I think I'll resent it later.

If someone says something I find offensive, I'll offer an alternative viewpoint. I won't try to change the other person's mind; I just won't let the statement go unremarked upon.

Sustaining and Appreciating Emotional Connections

I'll make a point of keeping in touch with special people I care about and returning their calls and electronic messages.

I'll think of myself as a strong person who deserves to give and receive help from my community of friends.

Even when people aren't saying the “right” thing, I'll tune in to whether they're trying to help me. If their effort makes me feel emotionally nurtured, I'll express my gratitude.

When I'm irritated with someone, I'll think about what I want to say that could improve our relationship. I'll wait until I cool off and then ask if the other person is willing to listen to my feelings.

Having Reasonable Expectations for Myself

I'll keep in mind that being perfect isn't always necessary. I'll get stuff done rather than obsess over getting things done perfectly.

When I get tired, I'll rest or do something different. My level of physical energy will tell me when I've been doing too much. I won't wait for an accident or illness to make me stop.

When I make a mistake, I'll chalk it up to being human. Even if I think I've anticipated everything, there will be outcomes I didn't expect.

I'll remember that everyone is responsible for their own feelings and for expressing their needs clearly. Beyond common courtesy, it isn't up to me to guess what others want.

Communicating Clearly and Actively Seeking the Outcomes I Want

I won't expect to know what I need unless I tell them. Caring about me doesn't automatically mean they know what I'm feeling.

If people close to me upset me, I'll try to understand my reaction first. Did something trigger my feelings from the past, or did the person really treat me insensitively? If someone was insensitive, I'll ask them to hear me out.

I'll be thoughtful to other people, and if they aren't thoughtful in return, I'll ask them to be more considerate and then let it go.

I'll ask for something as many times as it takes to get a clear answer.

When I get tired of interacting, I'll politely speak up, asking if we can continue our contact another time. I'll explain kindly that I'm just out of gas at the moment.

Do you get a sense of how much more energy and lightness you'd feel if most of these statements were true for you? You'd be active and self-expressive in your relationships, treating yourself kindly and expecting to be heard by others. You'd be freeing yourself from emotional loneliness. Even if you didn't learn these values and ways of interacting as a child, you can develop them now. Having emotionally immature parents may have undermined your self-acceptance, self-expressiveness, and hopes for genuine intimacy, but there's nothing to hold you back now as an adult.

This image illustrates a sequence that represents the progression of a romantic relationship leading to a marriage proposal, along with the text "Become His Secret Obsession."

1. **Holding Hands**: The first panel shows a couple walking hand in hand, symbolizing the early stages of a relationship where a bond is formed.

2. **Kissing**: The second panel depicts the couple sharing a kiss, indicating a deepening of the emotional and physical connection.

3. **Marriage Proposal**: The third panel shows the man on one knee, proposing with a ring, while the woman is visibly emotional, symbolizing a commitment or engagement.

The phrase "Become His Secret Obsession" suggests that the images are meant to convey how a woman can captivate and secure a deep emotional connection with her partner, eventually leading to a marriage proposal. The overall motive of the picture seems to be about guiding or influencing women on how to strengthen their romantic relationships to achieve commitment.
