Do You Relate?

• I just freeze when my partner is angry, and I don’t say anything at all.
• My partner tells me I just don’t care about their pain, but that’s not true. I do care.
• I can feel defensive when my partner is expressing their hurt or anger, but I just can’t seem to stop myself.
• When my partner is upset, I just find myself getting angry, and then sometimes I just say what they want to hear.
• I am afraid to do or say anything.
• I have no idea how to respond to my partner.
• My partner is never going to trust me again.
• When is this going to get better?
• I feel like we’ve done everything and nothing has worked.
• I am so remorseful about the pain that I’ve caused but my partner doesn’t believe me.
• I can’t find the right words to say I’m sorry.
• I feel like I’m walking on eggshells, and at any moment everything is going to fall apart.
• I feel so much shame about the destruction I have caused and that makes me shut down whenever I see my partner in pain.
• Maybe I just can’t be emphatic.
• Would my partner be better off without me?
• I haven’t acted out in a long time but my partner doesn’t believe me and keeps looking for evidence to prove that I’m lying. I don’t know what to do.
