is that person actually “demanding emotional labour” from you or did you follow one shitty therapist on twitter
while we’re at it did that person actually “violate a boundary” or have you been reading /r/relationships again
I’m not just speaking as someone who was abused by a partner who loved doing their emotional manipulation through therapy-speak. I genuinely think this is a huge societal problem and it’s how we’ve ended up with, eg, terfs inventing the clearly batshit idea that you can apply a “consent” framework to who gets to exist around you in public spaces and making it a cornerstone of their fascist bullshit
