Our animus and anima

everything we experience with other people is being updated, which translates for many of us into new friends and partners as well. The new people who come in will have a very different dynamic; the people who leave will clearly belong to the past. Yes, leaving is still ongoing, and in many instances we’re the ones stepping out the door. We don’t have to continue in relationships that are built on conflict, or domination, or control, or demeaning, or any version of our self that is less than who we are. If we feel we “have” to stay in the relationship, say for job or family reasons, we don’t have to continue in the old dynamics. We can choose to opt out of them. True, there may be repercussions, but consider the alternative.
