In conversations, particularly with close ones, the instinct to solve problems can promote miscommunication and resentment. Commonly observed in emotionally intelligent individuals or caretakers, the urge to offer solutions, even without direct requests, can misalign relational dynamics. This behavior prevents individuals from articulating their needs, fostering dependency on others for emotional expression. Such an imbalance can lead to burnout, as the emotional reward from 'helping' can be dangerously reinforcing, ultimately producing toxicity in relationships and workplaces.
It's easy to slip into problem-solving mode, especially with loved ones, leading to miscommunication and relational imbalances.
Automatically reacting to someone’s discomfort by trying to fix it can deprive them of expressing their needs.
