thank you for sharing~!

i struggled with this for the longest time as well. it's difficult to be open and vulnerable by communicating wants and needs up front. even the thought of rejection is anxiety-producing.

when you combine this with a transactional mindset (i've done for you, now shouldn't you do for me?), it creates a lot of tension and negative energy into relationships.

excellent response~! :3

thank you again so much for sharing. ^.^
