The Covert Narcissism Podcast

It’s a Yo-Yo Relationship


Listen Later

In this episode, Caryn Dixon tells her story publicly for the first time. Like so many others, she was in that yo-yo relationship. On again and off again. Thinking “this is over” only to give him one more chance. Trapped by hope and the belief that he will change, Caryn dug in to save her marriage many times. 

There is nothing wrong with you for choosing to believe in the person you married, for wanting to work things out with them, for fighting for the relationship, for hanging onto hope. These are not the signs that one is broken. The signs that we have been broken by this person are when our hope is gone, when we don’t have anything left, when we just don’t care anymore. That is our breaking point.

In sharing her story, Caryn gives a message of hope. She followed her heart and is chasing her dreams now. No matter how isolated you are, you can get through this. It is time to reach out for help and find the support that you need. 

From her song, “Here I am,” 

“They told me that I couldn’t fly. Gave a million reasons why I shouldn’t try. But I didn’t listen.

Well, I stumbled and I hit the ground. Get up and go another round. So here I am.”
