Breakdown.

I think that the reason why sometimes we end up having such difficulty, and one of the main reasons why relationships of any kind break down is because of a lack of communication. We dont say how we feel because we are too afraid that if we do, we will end up hurting the other person by either making them angry or hurt or upset. Or sometimes we are just afraid to stick up for ourselves, and tell someone that we are hurting inside, or that we think you think less of us or whatever reason. Its so dangerous because it means sometimes we think something which is not the case at all.
If we were to tell each other how we felt, everything would be a lot better, because even if it did hurt you would be able to begin to negotiate, to understand, to hug to cry to begin to make things better. If we dont understand why or that you are hurting in the first place, it just leads to more confusion.Yes the truth hurts, but at least once its out there once its been said you can try to deal with it somehow.
