I think another time that I didn't appreciate her disclosing things was when it felt like it was forced to establish some rapport with me.
I believe I said something about myself and she pointed to herself and said, "Yeah, I used to punch walls." Perhaps it wasn't her intention for me to feel minimized in that moment. Maybe I was being too sensitive. I just didn't find a correlation between my avoidant patterns as an adult and how she punched walls as a teenager.
Maybe it's just me...
