Deliberate Postponement

« Back to Glossary Index

A Tactic to Avoid Change. When the Abusive and Neglectful Woman has little intention of doing what is required, she will deliberately put things off indefinitely. This means an ultimate refusal. “I’m not ready yet.” “I can’t do it overnight.” “I have to do things one at a time.” “Let me figure out some things first.” and other excuses are used to buy time when she is actually refusing. She then blames others person for expecting too much instead of confronting her own lack of effort. Behind this is her doubt that she truly desires the life of a Caring and Loving Woman a different kind of life.
