Cheaper Than Therapy with Vanessa and Dené

Ep 151 Q&A Session: Are They Actually Too Good for You?


Listen Later

Episode 151 Q&A Session: Are They Actually Too Good for You is part of a series where we discuss topics and/or questions submitted by our listeners. In today’s episode we’re discussing the question, “What can lead someone to say to you that you are too good for them? Trauma, lack of self worth, etc.?”


We’re getting into:


  • The question of, “Wouldn’t they want to rise to the occasion if they really wanted to be in relationship with you?” and the possibility that somebody would use this as a way to lessen the hurt of not wanting to be together
  • Somebody in a state of active substance abuse may use this phrase as a way to continue hiding behind their addiction 
  • How men, especially, may be confronted with their own Mother Wound when faced with rejecting a woman and being presented with her emotionality, and may use this phrase as a way to avoid being honest with themselves
  • Being needed vs being wanted, and how a hyper-independent/avoidant person may subconsciously avoid deeper connections because they’re chasing the feeling of being wanted
  • That consciousness is the key to decision making, and there’s no shame in making the easy choice in the moment with that awareness, and learning how to move forward as you learn your Self

  • If you have a question or topic you’d like us to address, we would love to hear from you for our new Q+A series! Email us at [email protected]
