Are We Even Compatible?!
Here’s a question I’ve heard before–maybe it’s even a question you’ve asked yourself in the heat of battle... Is this normal or are we not actually compatible? Then, for the icing on the cake: Shouldn’t I be feeling (insert your choice of feeling word–the one that you’ve probably said to yourself before)?! Well, let’s talk, shall we?
Engaging Emotionally with Your Partner
One of the most common themes I see between hetero couples (some same-gender couples, but lots of hetero) is that they are speaking two different languages.
Don’t Confuse Strength with Stoicism
This might be one of the areas that I feel most strongly about. This misguided, societal belief that being strong equates to being stoic. That showing emotions is a sign of weakness, rather than an immense sign of strength. That to cry is to not be strong enough to hold it together. That nobody is walking around in pain, with anxiety, or dealing with depression, grief, and sorrow.
