Resisting temptation

Due to my profession I find myself in many different homes...and lately I have come across a few men who trigger me. They are assertive, a bit dominant and although I control the flow of conversation I can't help but yeild to their request. I just hurry and get done but it's got me on edge. I have all these thoughts. 馃様 Idk guys.

It must be tough having to be in these situations for your job, do you have an action plan for when you feel tempted? A ready excuse to leave at short notice to get you out of difficult predicaments?

@Mindfulness hadn't even thought of that. I'm going to have to put some thought into that

@MizzO Make an action plan to get yourself out.
Write down your triggers and how they make you feel, then decide what you can do to prevent you acting on them. If you're going somewhere you know you have felt tempted before, warn them in advance that you may need to leave in a hurry as you have a sick relative or something. Then if you feel yourself succumbing you can pretend to check your phone and say you have to go.

@MizzO There's always support if you ask the right questions. There's always idiots too but that's the world we live in. I hope you'll be ok.
