Oftentimes though, an independent person with a codependent person finds themselves in a toxic relationship, especially if the independent person is not healthy. And by healthy I mean exhibiting behaviors that are acceptable in every way by everyone. Because codependency, from what I was learned, is that we are making excuses for behaviors that other people find unacceptable. So to that extent, a lot of codependent people find themselves with, quote, narcissistic people quote and the relationship becomes quote, toxic
Obviously I could be wrong, and obviously anyone's allowed to disagree, but I think addiction and a lot of dependencies literally stem from codependent behavior. But again, that's just what I'm learning so far. So I will make sure to tag you if make a post about codefinity in the future as I continue to deepen my insights on this path as well
