You. I was in this long marriage where I wasn't happy. I think I was married to the wrong person. And when we made promises to each other, even though we heard what those promises were out loud and we said them in front of friends and family, the meaning of those promises was very different for each of us. And so I made the decision when I was 50 to end that marriage. And I never thought I would want or meet anyone else. Relationships are hard

Hello. Thank you for sharing this. I hope your partner hears this as well. And, you know, there's. There's something so nuanced about that revelatory moment when you're. When you're realizing that you're not getting what you need, but to have the bravery to know that it's worth it to leave something that's just draining you. And then to be able to celebrate the magnitude of difference between what you had and what you have now

For example, I cannot imagine that you would be yelling at the top of your lungs, drop that, I need you now, for example. But maybe you're using a more loving voice. I don't know. What do you think it is about your behavior that welcomes the way your partner is treating you? I wonder. I really do. This is such a wonderful, wonderful thing to hear

I can tell you that it wasn't something I expected from my partner or anticipated in any way. And I also didn't realize I needed that sort of come, you know, when I need you and when I call, will you come? I thought my love language actually was something else

I was, like, on fire furious, because, go, oh, I've been plagiarized and backtrack a little bit. This is someone who absolutely over the moon, head over heels about and not realizing that every time they'd repeated something that I'd written or done, something that was aligned from something I'd written, that it was what I had asked for. And I'm so disappointed that my first reaction or my second reaction really wasn't the best reaction
