    I don’t have context for your question, and sometimes someone gaslights you into thinking what they want is the right thing. But taking your question at face value, having someone encouraging you to be your best self isn’t a bad thing. I think that’s one of the ways we grow as people.

      it’s also why a lot of people grow better/more being single than in relationships.

      a lot of people in relationships don’t want their partner to change or grow because they fear that change or growth will devalue them and their role in the relationship.
