My wife minored in psychology. She’s always using all her amateur psychology when we argue.
When I fired the pool boy, she said,
“Well, you know, you’re only firing him because he’s so young and good looking,
and you feel threatened and insecure, because it reminds you of your own mortality,
and you’re projecting all these insecurities onto someone else in a very passive/aggressive way,
because these feelings are just too traumatic for you to deal with
