Day in the Life.


In my relationship with Reina there is a constant that goes something like this.

Every month or two, I do something dumb. I forget something, or I actively do something that doesn't take into account feelings or prior plans. Reina freaks out, I apologize, she turns vindictive/mean, I feel attacked, I go quiet, she gets more angry/accuses me of not communicating, I tell her a. I don't know what to communicate b. i understand where my mistake was c. I feel attacked and do not want to risk attacking her back, then she feels hurt, we give it some space, time passes, I apologize again, and if enough time has passed, then things get okay again. If not, repeat the last four steps.

And I think that this is a standard relationship type thing.

But it sure is draining.
