And you ain't just whistling Dixie, Sage!
Quote: NOW, my needs are bubbling up a bit and it makes it more confusing sometimes for me to decide "am I being reasonable here? How do I balance what I need with H?"
Yup. It's all about balance and whether we feel we are being reasonable with our requests. I fight with myself all of the time on this. Should I ask for X, or does suggest I'm being needy, and needy isn't healthy? Ugh!
Quote: "Wait a minute, isn't it completely reasonable for me to NEED something from him and expect to get it?" Hence my "I'm sick of this" post on Friday. What I did realize, though, was that yah, it is reasonable, but I didn't get what I needed anyway so for now, I just need to look at this as another opportunity for DB growth.
Good introspection, Sage. "Need" is a difficult thing to define, though, isn't it?
