The 7 Phrases Emotionally Immature Women Use That Reveal More Than They Know—Can You Spot Them?
3) “I knew it!”
The phrase “I knew it!” is frequently used by emotionally immature women, often reflecting what psychologists term as ‘hindsight bias’.
This is the tendency to believe, after an event has occurred, that we predicted or knew it would happen.
Hindsight bias can lead us to overestimate our own ability to predict events, creating an illusion of being in control.
It’s a form of self-validation that lacks objectivity and can hinder personal growth by preventing us from learning from our mistakes.
