Maybell XI

[GoatGal]

Well, we're all waiting to see how this all turns out!

I think when we're feeling particularly annoyed with them for whatever reason (past acts, present weirdness, or just for the unfairness of where we find ourselves) it's really hard to keep up that PMA and be friendly and pleasant, just "all business".


There are so many undercurrents going on on both sides. He's got expectations, too, and although you're not responsible for them, they still cloud his communication and reactions to you.
Even though it's about the "kids", there is a subtext of the R, future, trying to DB to the best of your ability.

It always feels like there is so much on the line.
And we can't really rely on them to understand just how much is at stake and how their actions affect us.

Kind of sad that we can no longer "just" have a conversation, because there is all this stuff churning beneath the surface. Like juggling ten balls at the same time.
Takes practice, skill, nerves of steel, and the ability to keep trying even if you get discouraged.

Treading that fine line between friendly and paving the way, vs. standing up for what you need and establishing some boundaries...well, Maybell, good for you for being brave enough to meet that challenge!

Just another practice session for your DBing skill set.
