“Ugly” used as an adverb is used to describe action that is not pretty to look at, but which gets the job done.

Ugliness is the quality or state of being unattractive. Despite a baby bird’s ugliness, it might grow up to be quite beautiful. You can talk about an unappealing appearance — that’s one kind of ugliness.

Ugliness is a property of a person or thing that is unpleasant to look upon and results in a highly unfavorable evaluation. To be ugly is to be aesthetically unattractive, repulsive, or offensive.

Familiarity is used especially in the expression familiarity breeds contempt to say that if you know a person or situation very well, you can easily lose respect for that person or become careless in that situation.

These enemies of God are the ungodly and evil people of this world who want to live in the corrupt ways of this world, and in whom familiarity breeds contempt. But, those who truly repent of their worldly ways will become reconciled to the Lord and be saved from the wrath to come. 11.

Familiarity is a curse. Familiarity is the source of many problems in our life. The problem however is that familiarity is not too familiar to many people such that they do not know its effect on their life. This is why in bible times demonic spirits were called “familiar spirits”.

With familiarity comes the danger of something becoming commonplace or ordinary. You know…we’re FAMILIAR with it to the point that it is taken at face value. We don’t need to pay attention to it any longer because we assume we know all there is to know about it.

Familiarity refers to the similar way we treat God and others. People can come as they want, when they want, to God. This attitude, however, is different from what the Scriptures teach. Though, we should not confuse this flippant attitude with Jesus’ welcome for all the poor and needy to come to Him (Mat 5:3-4).

When you communicate with contempt, the results can be cruel. Treating others with disrespect and mocking them with sarcasm and condescension are forms of contempt. So are hostile humor, name-calling, mimicking, and body language such as eye-rolling and sneering.

Simply put, they become too comfortable with each other. To avoid this, you need to keep paying attention to each other no matter how secure you feel in each other’s love. Realize that the only way to keep basking in the warmth of that love and is to keep doing the things that got you there in the first place.

As summed up by The Gottman Institute, “contempt is fueled by long-simmering negative thoughts about one’s partner, and it arises in the form of an attack on someone’s sense of self.” Gottman describes contempt as far beyond criticism, as it indicates a moral superiority over one’s partner.

Here are ten signs of disrespect to watch out for.

• They don’t listen to you.
• They don’t prioritize you.
• They give you the silent treatment.
• You caught them lying to you.
• They flirt with others.
• They hurt your feelings on purpose.
• They refuse to spend time with your family or friends.
• They have inconsiderate personal habits.

Contempt can ruin a relationship. The good news—you don’t have to let it. Healing For Your Relationship’s trusted counseling sessions empower couples to overcome feelings of contempt, resentment, and other negative emotions to build a better life together.

Stonewalling involves refusing to communicate with another person. Intentionally shutting down during an argument, also known as the silent treatment, can be hurtful, frustrating, and harmful to the relationship.

Gaslighting examples

• “You’re not hungry, you just ate”: Gaslighting as a parenting tactic.
• “I only did it because I love you”: Gaslighting as a way to show love.
• “I’m not cheating, you’re just paranoid”: Gaslighting as a way of deflecting blame.
• “No one will ever love you but me”: Gaslighting as a way to isolate.

Narcissist Stonewalling This means that your spouse refuses to listen to you and your concerns. You will learn that it is commonly used by those high in narcissistic traits as a subtle form of manipulation. You will likely never again be involved with another toxic partner or part of such an addictive relationship.

“Not listening” may be their way of ignoring the difficult feelings you want to talk about. They may want to spare your feelings by not telling you what they really think. Your spouse may be wiped out, distracted, and/or have a short attention span, making it hard for them to give you their full attention.

One of the obvious reasons why a guy may ignore or act disinterested in you is because he feels you are too good for him. He lacks the confidence to approach you or share his feelings with you, fearing you might reject him. He feels that sharing his true feelings might ruin your friendship with him.

His not talking to you may be because he doesn’t feel that he is getting enough attention from you. But, rather than seeking attention from you in a good way, he attempts to force it from you. This is the essence of needy behavior–trying to force from our partners what we need.

A man who respects you will always tell you the truth, even if it is hard to do. Sometimes hard conversations need to be had in relationships, and if he respects you, he’ll be able to have those conversations with you. If he doesn’t, you’ll find him drinking beer with his buddies trying to avoid the situation.

When he’s falling in love, everything is likely to become about her. He can’t stop thinking about her and would rather be spending time with her than doing anything else. He may feel a scared about the relationship and where it’s headed or he might just have a comfortable feeling about the entire thing.
