Marriage therapist Dr. Logan Cohen discusses the casual phrases that kind people say that also demand basic respect from others. AdvertisementKind but respected people often say these things casually:1. 'I'm not comfortable with that'Cohen advises deeply respected people to practice this phrase over and over until they feel comfortable saying it; maybe even role-play the scenario with a friend. Try starting with, "I'm not comfortable with that," as it is one of the more challenging phrases to use. Regardless of what phrase you choose to affirm your worth, kind people who are deeply respected deserve (and expect) as much emotional safety, security, and input as anyone else.
