Jasmyn Adriennea month agoMy husband and I have struggled with communication, and I know I’m a big part of that problem. A lot has happened between us over the last five years, and it’s left me with a lot of heavy emotions that we’ve never properly talked about. Just to clarify, nothing scandalous has occurred, but we’ve had a lot of life changes—both good and bad—that came one after the other. Lately, things have been really tough for us. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve ever felt this low or unhappy in my life, which is hard to believe because eight years ago, I had everything I ever wanted. I really want to talk to my husband about all of this, but I know I need to address a lot of things from the past five years before I can do that. I’m not perfect, and I know I’ve contributed to our issues, but so has he. The last thing I want to do is dump years of sadness, anger, and resentment on him and make him feel like I’m blaming him for everything. But at the same time, I need to bring up things that have hurt me and be able to express what’s bothering me now, or I’m not sure how much longer I can keep going like this. How do I begin to talk about all these years of unresolved feelings, acknowledge my own faults, and bring up current issues without making him feel like a terrible person (because he’s not)?140
