The Situation

"She maxes out credit cards and blames capitalism"

The Brutal Truth

She’s avoiding taking responsibility for her financial mess and placing the blame on external factors. This pattern shows a lack of accountability and maturity, which can lead to toxic dependency and emotional instability in your relationship.

❌ What NOT to Do (Anxious Response)

An anxious person might try to fix the situation by offering financial help or making excuses for her behavior, thinking they can change her. This is wrong because it reinforces unhealthy dynamics and hinders personal growth.

How would you feel if your partner took accountability for their actions instead of blaming others?
