[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Key to longterm healthy relationships is truly understanding the other person is not you. This means they may not think like you or handle situation the way you would. Something that is obvious to you may not be obvious to someone else. Instead of pouting and demanding apologies for being different, vocalize what you need. In a calm manner. Realize this works both ways.[/quote] Good advice. I'll add that it can take time for a partner to be mindful of your preferences....in my DH's case, it was years. But, because our communication was good (even though my feelings were hurt), we were able to work through it and reach a state where we were both comfortable.[/quote]
