Bridge

Fixated on & anxious about maintaining positive relationships, & tending to do more than 1/2 the work

I do more “emotional labor” than the other, to help our connection feel good.

Experiencing mutually supportive, nourishing, and resilient close relationships

I enjoy the mutually caring & supportive relationships I have with others.

Apathy, or lack of interest & motivation, in attending to the needs of others

I put less attention & effort into my relationships than others do with me.

Over-focused on, impacted by, and taking on the views, concerns, & situations of others

I focus on the concerns, interests, and/or feelings of others at the expense of my own.

Understanding, empathetic, and appreciative of the experiences, views, and situations of others

I easily “tune in” to what the other is feeling, and talk about it with them.
