Unmet Needs: When Others Don't Reciprocate
How do you navigate it when you invest a lot into other, but they are unwilling or unable to fulfill your very valid needs? Many empaths and highly sensitive people find themselves struggling with anger and resentment due to these relationship imbalances, but there is hope.
Join me as we discuss:
Empathetic Struggles: Highly sensitive individuals tend to give freely but often face unmet needs in return, leading to frustration.
Emotional Awareness: Learn to acknowledge feelings like anger, resentment, and envy without judgment, using them to gain clarity in relationships.
Silent Contracts: Discover how unspoken expectations lead to disappointment and how to navigate these dynamics consciously.
50/50 Balance of Life: Understand that life is equally positive and negative-disappointment is inevitable, but accepting this truth can bring peace.
Survival Responses: Learn how disappointment can trigger a fight, flight, freeze, or fawn response.
Healthy Boundaries: Explore strategies to avoid burnout, such as setting time limits before responding to requests and reassessing energy investments.
Review and Summary: It can be disappointing when others are unwilling or unable to meet our needs. Using how others show up as information rather than a manipulative tactic can help to bring peace and clarity AND get your needs met.
Are you ready to break free from people-pleasing, set boundaries, and create balance in your life?

Authentic Living, Personal Healing & Breaking Free of Limiting Beliefs with Gina Strole Episode 105
Wow, thank you for sharing your wisdom. I recently tried this exercise; obviously, relationships are more complex and it is just to bring awareness. :) "When I am with this person, I feel ______. After our interactions, my energy level is ___ out of 10." Very interesting stuff came from this!!
I stumbled upon this video but I needed to see it! I am fairly new in my city, and while I have made some friends, I am definitely the one who offers help or organizes a get together. But very little is actually returned to me. My friends are good people, but they are definitely not as tuned in to people’s needs as I am. It is frustrating and can be very hurtful at times.
I'm that way! I always think. If I don't do it (for others) nobody is going to do it. Everybody says I'm the best host. When I was younger it wouldn't matter, now my health has deteriorated, I'm burned out, sunk in debt and sad that there are no more people who care for others. This world would be better. Thank you for your video. It's true what you said.
@@claudiagutierrez2845 first of all, thank you for being a light in this world. We need more people like you! Secondly, it’s so true that the burnout is real. We can’t pour from an empty cup and it can be a challenge at times to get our own needs met. You are not alone!
@maryannwalkerlife Thank you for your response.
this woman emma have a big illusion.we are in a world of selfishes.she think that all are capables to love like she and have her capacities.many peoples, a part be selfishes are not capables to give or are stealers. opportunists or profiters, or want all giving nothing, or for they all is exigible or are greedy and attached to their things like to their sh.t.not all are good, many are malvages or narcisists and calculators
@@pierre931 you’re right. There are many in this world with ill intent. The best we can do is stand firm in our conviction to be the good in this world and opt out of relationships with those that rob us of our peace. Thank you for your comment!
yes mam im empath lack camnicution lack boundaries
@@ezazkhan4233 I think a lot of empaths do! It can be a struggle to find balance when you’re so sensitive to the world around you. But boundaries really do help! I’m glad you’re here!
yes mam im people please lack camnicution lack boundaries
@@ezazkhan4233 you are not alone! I’m so glad you connected on here. It’s wonderful to have community!
my whole life people please no boundaries @@maryannwalkerlife
This was helpful. Thank you
Glad it was helpful! I hope you will check out the other videos in this series. There is so. much to talk about!
Thank you for the interesting points and very helpful questions 😊
So glad it resonated! Thanks for watching!
It feels like this video was divinely placed onto my feed because the video only had 4 views when I clicked on it and it is a topic that I have been struggling with this for so long. I knew immediately when I saw the title that this video was going to provide me with some great wisdom and perspective that I needed, thank you so much for sharing your work <3
@@aodhanmartinez wow! Thank you so much for the view and for your kind words! I’m so glad it found you!
Dear Mary Ann, I listen to your podcast on Snipd and wanted to let you know I really like it! I get valuable insights from it even though sometimes I‘m not even the target audience but in fact relate more to ‚the other side‘ of the described dynamic. But since you describe that side too it often helps me see it in a new light. Thank you for the insights and accountability 😊💛 Best wishes from Germany
@@prettypizza wow! Thank you so much for reaching out and for sharing your kind words! I’m super curious how you found me. But love that my messaging has made it to Germany! Thanks for reaching out!
@@maryannwalkerlife i think i was searching for a specific topic and came across one of your episodes :)
@@prettypizza that’s awesome! I’m glad you came back for more! 🥰
Super helpful!! This content is exactly what I was looking for, thank you for sharing.
I'm so glad! I plan to create more content on this very issue, so stay tuned!
Thank you so much for this. It's been a challenge for me to navigate respecting people's feelings and holding myself accountable while also being unsure how to deal with someone who exploits what should be positive and assertive respect. This helps so much!
I'm so glad you found it helpful! It's taken me a long time to see it... and sometimes I still need the reminder that I don't have to tolerate others mistreatment of me.....even if I understand why they are the way they are. I plan to create more content on this subject, so stay tuned!
Great walk through on this. I was just pondering how to show up with empathy and boundaries at the same time. They sometimes feel at odds if you’re not sure how to verbalize support and strength at the same time!
So true! It can be a real struggle to find a balance that feels honoring and authentic. I'm glad it resonated!
Great video with really good examples on how to respond as well. Keep doing these types of videos! 🙂
So glad it resonated! And you got it! There's more to come!
Excellent commentary!
Thank you! So glad it resonated!
The hero role is often taken by people who enjoy controlling others and feeling powerful, as well. This conversation is helpful but overall this subject is far more complex than this conversation conveys. Many predators begin their sinister process in a hero role.
SO true! It's impossible to cover all the nuance of this in one conversation. Because of that, I'm going to make this part of a series on the drama triangle & empowerment dynamic. I hope you will subscribe and participate in the conversation! I value your insight!
Such a beautiful and needed reminder. Thank you! ❤
I'm so glad it resonated! This is one of those ideas where once you see it, you can't unsee it! Thanks for the comment!
This is so helpful. Thank you for your empathetic insights and practical advice!! :)
So glad you found it helpful! Welcome to my channel!
Compassionate curiosity... Indifference it's a wonderful thing in a partnership in relationship.... Two people can observe the same thing, and sometimes each person will have a totally different perspective on the subject.... Combine the two and now you have a broader and wider perspective as well as possibilities. Now you have expansion, as well as integration, and together, you can meet in the middle and grow
Thank you for posting! This is very helpful! 👍
