[quote=Anonymous]For me personally it's about ending the self-critical stuff. I excuse myself in being critical of DH because *i* also create high expectations of myself. When he or I miss my self-imposed high standards, he can't understand. I call it fair, in my head, because I'm hard on myself too. I stopped doing that, with slip ups, a few years ago. I didn't realize how much self-help would improve my part in giving to our marriage. That's just me. Could be other people too. More generally, I think a lot is about getting the care you need to be your best. You can't give if you're burner out, bring issues that you're not working on. My spouse could give and give and give, he's sweet, but it was slowly gnawing at 'us.'[/quote]
