If you’ve been living in the SYMBIOTIC pattern, you instinctively sense what others want, and shape yourself to match their preferences, like a chameleon. It’s really scary for you when people get angry, so you avoid conflict and go with the flow. You’ve often latched onto powerful people and become their sidekick. All your focus goes toward maintaining these important relationships, while your own individuality feels murky. You often don’t feel clear about your preferences or your point of view, but even when you know what is a “Yes” or a “No” for you, you’ve been too afraid to voice this or hold firm boundaries.
As a people-pleaser, you’ve told others what they want to hear, instead of telling the truth. Connection has felt like the most important thing, yet eventually the self-betrayal becomes unbearable. In the end, you cut off and walk away from these close relationships with little or no explanation, rather than staying and being honest.
Emerging from the SYMBIOTIC pattern means that you stop bending to everyone else’s preferences. You firm up, take shape, hold onto yourself, and stand up for yourself. You become SOLID when being true to yourself becomes more important than being liked. You develop a sense of personal power and get to be real equals with those you are close to, thinking independently, and making decisions with conviction. When you are SOLID, you discover that you get to be respected and loved in a sustainable way, without always having to be pleasing.
