Maybe I’m just spoilt. An eye needs to be kept on the potential for psych abuse among those who just haven’t been expected to deal with the trevails in relationships that we actually do, just as a bit more thought would suggest. Perhaps some of us are too keen to show we can manage in relationships that actually would be very detrimental for anyone. Some of us don’t realise that we too can increase the likelihood of a lot of grief for each other, having been through so much in our lives, and never really knowing how to open up and still feel secure. That part of how to make each other feel safe, is a relationship skill often neglected, sometimes to detrimental effect beyond what could be expected as usual part-and-parcel of living.

But, hell, my petty little personal concerns are naught compared with what others go through. No one could have been expected to hear what I’ve ranted about in the past, but I think I’m over this – I’m not so antsy when I try co write about it.

Happy 2010 to you and Steve.
