It shields the instigator from responsibility.
Too much emotional bypassing gets rid of your self-protection.
Vulnerability without any attribution of blame to the true perpetrator leaves you more vulnerable.

It reminds you that you have been violated and allows you to seek justice and appropriate consequences.
Too much emotional bypassing gets rid of your self-protection.
Vulnerability without any attribution of blame to the true perpetrator leaves you more vulnerable.

They return your kindness and mercy with an escalation in cruelty.
Thats why it may be time to stop turning the other cheek constantly to following through with healthier boundaries.
Mercy rarely works with these toxic types and just gives them more chances to exploit us.
Overexplaining ourselves in hopes that they will change gives us false hope.
They return your kindness and mercy with an escalation in cruelty.
Emotional validation, self-compassion, honoring your anger not emotional bypassing are the first steps toward true healing.
You were always the bigger person when youve been violated.
