Couples Therapy: Sharing is Caring
Share something with your partner.
This is harder than it sounds for me. Since falling in love with Bobby, my life has been an open book to him. If he asks, I answer honestly. There’s no real reason to hide anything from him. Until recently, until his life and thus mine started to spiral out of control. I keep things from him again in a silent effort to keep the weight on his shoulders from getting worse. In the long run, my problems aren’t as serious as his. He’s given me a sense of perspective where now problems that would be major issues are now minor annoyances that I can deal with as easily as swatting a fly. I know he thinks that his problems have ruined my life. They have certainly damaged it, but they have also taught me important lessons.
But, that’s not the point of this, the point of this is to share something. Something new, something I haven’t shared with him before. I want something big for this, something really important. There’s no point in sharing if I don’t make it something big. And, handsome, this is something big.
So, here you go, handsome, something… someone I want to share with you.
