What it is
Some people can give endlessly and can barely receive. Care offered to them gets deflected, minimized, or turned into a task to repay. The ledger reopens the moment someone is kind.
It’s the other side of feeling unseen: being unseen hurts, and being seen gets refused too. Same block, two directions.
How it shows up for me
This is an observation about myself, not a tested fact. When someone does something kind for me, I notice the urge to immediately even the score. I’m practicing saying “thank you” and stopping there.
