Yes...bf's and previous husbands. When you think you're sharing and wanting them to understand, what they are doing is filing the information away for later use in an argument. Every. Damn. Time.

I've gotten much better at hiding stuff like that now. It's necessary. I don't have to tell them all of my misshapen, haphazard thoughts...I don't have to admit to fears or shame or real/imagined dismissals. I have to do those things with my T but not with them. Not anymore. I can't take THAT added hurt among all the others.
