High fit

Reattribution helped Allie Michalka shift responsibility in her kept relationship. When her ex said 'I made you a woman' during their breakup, trying to make their past more significant, Allie responded casually like 'whatever, who cares? I lost my virginity to you, it's not that big of a deal.' She stopped letting his emotional investment and guilt about being her first control her decisions and moved the responsibility for their relationship's importance from his feelings to her own choices.
