People who avoid hard conversations usually leave behind the most damage.
Avoidance doesn’t erase problems, it amplifies unspoken issues and creates emotional distance. Difficult conversations may be uncomfortable, but silence is what breaks trust.
— Robert Wilkinson
I keep coming back to education. Unless our parents modelled good communication/relationship skills, we don’t tend to learn about respectfully drawing boundaries and addressing conflict. But it really is never too late to cultivate emotional intelligence. I have a feeling at least some relationships could be saved. Just sayin’ : ) Hugs and good luck. XO
