We’ve been taught that expecting less from people is emotional maturity.
But what if that narrative is actually protecting avoidance?
In this episode, I unpack the growing cultural tendency to label expectations as “too much” while normalizing emotional absence, low effort, and unspoken withdrawal. We talk about how “low-maintenance” has become a shield for neglect, how “capacity” is often confused with accountability, and why so many people want the benefits of connection without participating in the labor of it.
This isn’t about forcing people to give what they don’t have.
It’s about being honest about what relationships require—and who pays the cost when others opt out.
Because expectations don’t destroy relationships.
Avoidance does.
