but i just wanted to say Talulah how sorry i am you got that reaction from your partner. maybe she got scared? that was a huge thing you did telling her. at least give yourself credit for that. and give your partner some time if you can. it was not a fair reaction, very hurtful, but maybe she will try to understand if she has some time. if not please keep reminding yourself this is about her and her reaction. not about you. you are not shameful and have no reason to be ashamed. you have no blame in what happened to you.
be gentle with yourself.
