Confessions of a Codependent

Why ALL RELATIONSHIPS MUST BE TRANSACTIONAL for the recovering codependent!

Do you OVER-VALUE yourself within the lives of others? What standards do you have for your friendships? How can you test for EQUITY and VALUE within a relationship? Can being in your "VILLAIN ERA" permanently cure your codependence? If something tragic happened to you, would your friends be there for you the way you would be there for them? Is expressing "unconditional love" even safe for a co-dependent?
PLUS: proof that the "golden rule" cannot exist in reality... especially if you are a recovering codependent!
* CONFESSIONS of a CODEPENDENT podcast
HOST JENNY E. allows you to get up close and personal inside her life, her heart and her messy vs. wise minds. With the hope of helping others heal, becoming aware of their codependence, and use real life tools for dramatic change. This is Jenny’s most personal podcast, politics-free, and a beacon of light to those still suffering from PTSD, narcissistic, obsessive compulsive disorder, sexual abuse, borderline personality, CPTSD, and codependence.

You Owe Me Nothing in Return
Lyrics
I'll give you countless amounts of outrightAcceptance if you want itI will give you encouragement to chooseThe path you want if you need itYou can speak of anger and doubtsYour fears and freak outs and I'll hold itYou can share your so called shame filled accountsOf times in your life and I won't judge it(And there are no strings attached to it)You owe me nothing for giving the love that I giveYou owe me nothing for caring the way that I haveI give you thanks for receiving, it's my privilegeAnd you owe me nothing in returnYou can ask for space for yourselfAnd only yourself and I'll grant itYou can ask for freedom as wellOr time to travel and you'll have itYou can ask to live by yourselfOr love someone else and I'll support itYou can ask for anything you wantAnything at all and I'll understand it.(And there are no strings attached to it)You owe me nothing for giving the love that I giveYou owe me nothing for caring the way that I haveI give you thanks for receiving, it's my privilegeAnd you owe me nothing in returnI bet you're wondering whenThe next payback shoe will eventually dropI bet you're wondering when my conditional policeWill force you to cough upI bet you're wondering how farYou have now danced your way back into debtThis is the only kind of love, as I understand itThat there really isYou can express your deepest of truthsEven if it means I'll lose you and I'll hear itYou can fall into the abyssOn your way to your bliss, I'll empathize withYou can say that you'll have to skip townTo chase your passion and I'll hear itYou can even hit rock bottomHave a mid-life crisis and I'll hold it(And there are no strings attached to it)You owe me nothing for giving the love that I giveYou owe me nothing for caring the way that I haveI give you thanks for receiving, it's my privilegeAnd you owe me nothing in returnYou owe me nothing for giving the love that I giveYou owe me nothing for caring the way that I haveI give you thanks for receiving, it's my privilegeAnd you owe me nothing in returnSource: ⁠Musixmatch⁠
