The illusion that everything will just turn out magically without having to communicate; thoughts, feelings, and needs in a relationship is an immaturity that will make true connection impossible.

I learned this lesson the hard way. I would say that I mostly went quiet and sulked in my past relationships. I lacked the skills to “address” issues that came up. I couldn’t even necessarily pin point what I was upset about. I also didn’t understand that I could talk about what had happened, how I felt about it and I didn’t realize that I could make requests for change. Having said that, I was not with the ideal partner either. I’m fairly certain that even with my shiny new skills, irreconcilable differences would have doomed my previous relationships. Just sayin’ :) Hugs. XO
