When you complain about the way somebody else behaves around you, here’s a thought:

Perhaps the way they’re behaving is one you’ve been inviting through your own way of relating to them.

The downside of discovering this? You’ll no longer be able to get yourself off the hook with your complaints and the certainty of your judgements.

The upside? By starting with yourself you’ll have a chance, at last, of actually changing the situation so what’s important to you can start to happen.
