Been a while, I have been doing some mind searching(havent found it yet)...So I am playin' catch up right now. This is one of those forks in the road. One of those, "I'd prefer to pick up the fork and eat pie moments"...(yeah so I am weird..) If there is even an inkling of the thought you are doing this, then somewhere inside you want to do this. Its those demons or the knowing of other person's demons that just make you want to stay where its comfy and you know. Like BD said maybe start off with the cards on the table. All of them. And boundaries and work at it. One half of all issues in relationships is the communication or th elack of understanding what that is and should be. Start off positive. It does take work from both but it can be done. Allowing someone to blow off steam- or just be themselves...without internalizing it and making it our own. Okay I will hush up now! Off to catch up!
