I spent about five years just not sure. I'd go to church and I'd feel good about it. And of course, they had all the questions about multiple wives. Everything that I'd gone through up until that point, I had decided that I didn't deserve to be loved, and so when I met this guy who I really believed liked me, I convinced myself that he would love me if I became what he needed me to become right.
Do you ever catch yourself changing little things about who you are just to fit in or be liked? Maybe you’ve pretended to enjoy a sport because your partner does, or you've choked down sushi because it's the group's favorite. In this episode of 'We Should Probably Talk About That', Lori and Andrea tackle the tricky topic of chameleon behavior—when we morph into someone else to gain acceptance or love.
Andrea opens up about her own 10-year journey of self-betrayal, cleverly hidden behind a facade of faith and happiness. Her story is a raw and real look at how far we sometimes go to be loved, even if it means losing ourselves in the process. Lori and Andrea dive deep into the emotional toll of people-pleasing and the struggle to reclaim one's true identity. They also touch on how religious beliefs can shape and sometimes distort our sense of self.
By the end, they challenge listeners to embrace authenticity and stop betraying their true selves for the sake of fitting in. It's a heartfelt conversation that might just make you rethink how much of yourself you're willing to give up for love.
