There is a concept called dualistic thinking that has to do with categorizing things in one of two ways, this OR that: as in good or bad, like or dislike, right or wrong. However, most of us have grappled with situations where the answer was more nuanced than a simple yes or no , where we ve processed emotions that were more complicated than good or bad , and where the line between right and wrong was blurred.
