Thank you! Perfect timing for this video in my life

Over functioner and under functioner anxious can be the same person displaying these qualities in different aspects of life. That’s my experience.

[@realBeltalowda]

And if both people have anxiety you can see this dynamic continuously flip back and forth as each partner gets burnt out overfuncitioning to make up for the lack left by the underfunctioning partner until that contempt and resentment and EXHAUSTION builds to the point of causing a rift in the relationship. At that point the underfunctioning partner can switch to become the overfunctioning partner and vice versa.

You are literally explaining my dream guy. Thank you Connor. This is exactly what I want in a man. Literally saving this video for future to even practice this on myself.
