Post-Awakening Relationships

[Immortalis Vigil]

There is nothing you can do to get her to look at the issues she's facing though. You are doing everything right by trying to be understanding and recognizing the behaviors...the hardest part is not getting caught up when it's obvious they're being controlled. It gets tiring and disheartening.
Forgive...forgive and forgive again. Then your higher self can use the loving energy to build.

Thank you for the insight, Kaaron! The pattern I've noticed with her is that she has a PTSD sort of aversion to all forms of spirituality. She rebelled against the JW religion when she was a teenager, and became an atheist. She distrusts all forms of spirituality and religion, fearing they are an attempt to control and brain wash her.

The only thing that keeps the door open to spirituality are her recurrent dreams of traumas in past lives, and her psychic sensitivity. But most of the time those phenomena are just willfully ignored, since they don't fit into the reductionist materialist paradigm.

I get a little frustrated watching her repeat harmful catalysts and self-inflicting harm. But then I remember what a service she is providing by processing such dense catalysts, and remember to love and not judge.
