Reflective Context
This week in particular I have dealt with a lot of relationship drama; not my own but involving some of my closest friends. Coincidentally, both involved relationships that had been relatively long-term and dealing with changes in feelings and realizations that something for one or both of the people involved just was not working. I know both of the female parties definitely did some thinking in “stereo” as they decided both how to address the problems in their relationships and how to cope with the aftermath of their decisions. Over arching themes involved finding the strength to stand up for yourself and speak your mind, as well as being able to love yourself so that others can love you.
