I really need you to offer more support, instead of just what we are doing. I need you to see that I'm kinda crumbling, and I really don't want to do all these changes at once and seemingly alone. I need you to stop talking and listen more. I need the space to be ok with being vulnerable, because I need a release for all this. I need to be able to vent so I don't implode. Please don't listen to my efforts at avoiding things, because it will end up problematic. I'm too worried about offending, upsetting, or angering you. Please see that and recognize it and call me out on it... please...?
