At any rate, after I got the first reply, started feeling really over exposed and combative (I'm excellent at being defensive) and have decided to save myself the stress for right now and maybe table this and see how it goes talking to her about it tomorrow first instead. I hate being sleep deprived, makes everything worse.
i'm sorry! i didn't mean to trigger those emotions i know what that feels like though. i get like that with my t. i've been long enough with him now that when i feel exposed i usually end whatever i'm saying with, 'and now i want to insult you because f*** you.' it's almost a joke with us now. he says he considers me holding back an act of endearment.

i hope it goes well today.
