What does it mean when you realize you may have been making a mistake or taking criticism in a negative or defensive way on a project, as discussed in the episode 466: How to Cope with a Dying, Narcissistic Parent | Feedback Friday and the clip Getting What You Deserve? I'm feeling frustrated because I thought I showed myself okay, but it could have still been perceived differently. I'm also annoyed because, while I was responsive and thankful, I felt dismissed by a manager who often asserts herself in the middle of presentations without letting me continue. This makes it very different from my interactions with everyone else, who love me, and I love them. I'm going to change how I've been acting, but will this change help her loosen her resistance too?
