A communication solution

I shared something before on this website when I had a hard time. Now I'd like to share something positive. Actually the opposite of communication problems... communication solutions!

Yesterday night I noticed I was quickly annoyed by my partner. But I couldn't put my finger on it. Normally I keep on trying, and in the end I still push him away. but this time I did something else.

As agreed with my therapist I went to bed early to keep some distance and I thought about what was really happening and how I could express that in a positive way to him when he would come up. Luckily it took a while, because I needed time for that. But when he came up, I was able to express with the lights off what I would want. And he responded very well to that.

Today I feel very proud about that! Proud about us. We did not get into trouble yesterday, but came closer together. I will enjoy going to my therapist again next week!
