This is when I stopped really talking to family.
turning around and repeating every damn thing you're told is a good way to end up never getting told anything
"But I don't know why they stopped talking to me!"
My partner tends to do the same and I am not sure how to start this discussion. We recently had a fight about our respective ways of interacting during arguments just before they get heated and talked about it afterwards, coming to a (what I thought) somewhat satisfying conclusion on the areas we could each work on. Fast-forward about a week and by now I have overheard her tell this ‘story’ of our fight to about 5 different friends and family members on the phone, over the various days.
Like I said, I’m just not sure how to handle it - I don’t want to cut off her communication with friends. I realize sometimes you need to bounce off an idea you’re mulling over with a close friend. But I also feel there are certain private affairs I just don’t wanted chatted about to all our extended friend circle, and this is a pattern that’s repeated itself often enough now for me to recognize.
Maybe tell her ? If you don’t communicate they won’t be able to just guess
I mean yes, definitely, it’s a topic I want to broach. But since I’m not even sure myself yet on my exact feelings or wishes I find it harder to open a gentle, full discussion - especially when it may be around adjusting some fundamental relationship assumptions.
But I definitely didn’t want to make it sound like a one-sided fault, as these things rarely are.
You have a nice attitude towards our and that’s great ! Hope you’ll soon find a way to communicate this to them in a gentle way
Practice better OpSec...don't reveal secrets to people who won't keep them
Is that Jim Carrey? Because I don't know anymore.
no, I believe that's Walton Goggins if I'm not mistaken.
I just thought I'd clarify as that's an insult to Mr. Goggins, he looks nowhere near as bad as post-surgery Carrey.
Walton Goggins
Deadbeat Walton Goggins actually.
I had the same reaction
I don’t share anything to my mom unless I want it broadcasted to the world
