Why would someone encourage you to do something, then after sometime discourage you about it?

Depends on what IT was... Maybe you were to good at it or enjoyed it too much... Sounds like there's some insecurity at play here ...

Well I had an ex who would encourage me to do stuff then discourage me if I was too good at it. He would get intimidated if I was better at something than he was. 🙄

@DearAmbellina2113 yikes. I’ve always wanted to be with men who are smarter than I am... not necessarily better at everything .... but it’s sad if anyone discourages yku from what you’re good at.

Projection Some people are afraid to do things themselves, so they encourage someone else to do it.

Then they have second thoughts
