imagine having one of these for your mother.. i went to the other side of the world to get away from her and now she wants to come live down the road. Of course im the bad one as she;s convinced everyone im uncaring and crazy, when really its simply that i have no energy or tolerance left, i also now have a chronic health condition from all the stress and energy draining, there is no where to go, because she;s family and you have to stay in contact with your family.

WRONG. That is what we are programmed to think. That we have to stay in contact with family. So untrue. We do not have to be subjected to energy drains by anyone. It's very simple. You say, " I love you, thank you for being the best mother you could be, I love you for that, but I don't like you as a person and I choose to not be around you. Please respect my choices" and you walk away. Why does family have a special pass to create pain in your life? Your in control!

And I did have one of these for a mother. I haven't talked to her in years. At first it was hard and every once and awhile I get sentimental for what should be family, but then I remember how hard having them in my life was and I get over it quick. LOL. Good luck to you my friend.

This series has helped a lot as I have attracted a lot of ev's in life am much better at spotting them so I don't enter into relationships with them to begin with and spend hours listening to their never ending drama. It really helped me to be firm with an ev neighbor - who is a chamelion and tried to worm her way into my life and suck the energy from our household - now even when she tries I can now handle it by giving neutral energy and being firm with boundaries. Thanks again for the series

@Sanaajeet

You are most welcome. I am very pleased that you found help in establishing boundaries. It's so liberating when we take back the power and energy of our lives. May you and yours always be surrounded by love, peace and joy.

Where were you, and this information for most of my young adult life? My best friend told me I had a magnet that attracted ev's.

Married the MASTER manipulator! I find for

me, detachment works best. ...they are relentless chameleons! and will 'hook' you

in by providing something they will never let you 'pay off whatever "debt" they have used as bait. (i'm not talking money here)

Recharge?! Damn the last bit of understanding people I got an EV after me and he knows I´m autistic and love to amuse it ;C

[sheilaw12]

Good straight talk! I just ended a long term friendship with an EV who just dumped on me all of the time. Our phone coversations were not even conversations...just me listening and listening and listening. After a few years of my caretaking, her negativity was really starting to bring me down. I'm looking forward to a new life without her draining me all of the time. It hurts a little bit, but I think I will be ok.

[SovereignBeing]

@cori800888 thanks! yeah i did tell them i wasnt able to deal with their toxicity..and not to contact me again - until i contact them,, feels great to be able to heal myself without constant energy drains and other people projecting their crap onto me..

[cori800888]

@SovereignBeing well.. what ive been doing is just saying goodby like 4Mingthoughs has suggested..see 4mings other video's on this...its wonderful advice. Just than God you have not married that boy friend... tell them that is been stressful or whatever and that you need some space and say goodby...then never.. ever.. return or respond to them when they come around again, no matter how sweetly. See 4mings vids on the details.

soon your energy comes back, peace and happyness ensues

[SovereignBeing]

@4MINGTHOUGHTS thank, yeah i know, its just the emphasis they put on family loyalty and all that, and go on about what they sacrificed for you.. its all mind control i know and they manipulate so you feel guilty and go back all the time. i have been fantazising about saying exactly what you mentioned .. so my own peace of mind and health.. i think its time~ thanks for your suggestion and great video.
