A connection style from What's Your Connection Style?
The Overgiver
You love with your whole chest. You show up early, stay late, and give in ways people don't always think to ask for. Somewhere along the way you learned that your worth in a relationship was tied to how much you contributed to it. Giving became how you earned your place.
What hides underneath
You struggle to receive. Compliments feel awkward. Help feels like a burden. Letting someone care for you requires a kind of vulnerability that doesn't come easily, because deep down you're not sure the love would stay if you had nothing left to give.
Your real strength
You are the kind of person who makes others feel genuinely seen and chosen. When you learn to give from fullness instead of fear, your love becomes one of the most healing things someone can experience.
Three journal prompts for The Overgiver
- When was the last time you let someone take care of you without trying to pay them back?
- What do you believe would happen if you gave a little less this week?
- Write about one thing you need right now that you haven't asked anyone for.
