I broke my cardinal rule

This week I was reminded about why I said I wasn't going to talk to people much about my relationship if there were issues.

Everybody is a critic/expert despite their own relationship mini dramas.  Anything that you say is just you being in denial. Operation Lips are Zipped is in full effect. 

I vow to ask for what I need (ie: don't need your advice in this moment, I just want you to listen nonjudgementally).

Being direct and asking for what I need from my support system helps to manage my anxiety and stress. (Something I'm learning loads about in therapy.)

Time to put on the big girl panties...hopefully people will understand.
