> My psych says I was suffering from post traumatic stress when I met my hubby. In general we've had a good relationship for the past 16 years. But had I been in my right mind would have I got involved? Probably not? But alot of these questions are easy to answer in hindsight. No relationship is perfect, they all need work which means a lot of communication.
it's difficult to say, isn't it, when we have all of these psych problems. if you read my post above i should just cut off contact with all people and be a nun and knit dolls for children.
communication is also weird when you've just started something with someone. "why did you bring me here?" i whispered to him in the middle of the night at his apartment in the other city. "because, dude, you've got to miss austin and i haven't seen you all summer" he said (he'd been overseas and we were at his roommate's birthday party)--being casual is pretty important in the beginning.
last year i was a bitch to men. if they liked me i'd skrew them over good. that doesn't make me feel spiritually clean, but at least i wasn't getting hurt.
i know this is weird. anymore insight/advice would be appreciated.
