63 - The psychology of "The Other Woman" and how to avoid becoming her (+ how to heal) ft Dr Tari Mack & Dr Massimo Fontana
The OPENHOUSE therapists discuss a user submission on someone who has been the ‘Other Woman’ for too long. Louise asks the team:
*HOW* did this situation happen?
How did she get so brainwashed?
What sort of man (or woman) entertains a long term affair?
Why and how does this person have so much power over her?; and
Where does she go from here?
Louise and the therapists discuss:
How affairs start
The type of man or woman who are most susceptible to being ‘The Other’
The statement ‘I can’t leave’ and what this really means
The concept of power play and adrenaline
The difference between attention & intention
The darker, shadow sides of when we accept shameful love
How to leave or end an affair and
How to avoid one happening in the first place
And more.
Louise also shares her own personal experience with ‘being the other’ and discusses The Thimble Analogy - the game changing therapy analogy that radically changes the way that you understand how, and why, you accept less than loving love - and how to change this.
And more!
