Understanding the Illusion of Excessive Agreeableness
Excessive agreeability can obstruct genuine communication and connection, leading to irritation and frustration in relationships. This behavior often stems from a fear of conflict and a desire to avoid  "inner" discomfort, which is rooted in early childhood experiences with emotionally rejecting caregivers. The goal is to help individuals recognize and explore their false agreeableness, addressing the illusion of connection and the fear of being alone or abandoned. This can lead to genuine connection, emotional flexibility, and freedom.
