Yeah, I told him once again I wished he would shut up.
That I felt like nothing was good enough for him.
Yet I wasn't teary.
Or feeling emotionally fragile.
Just decided to go for it and express my anger and it came so clear.
It was not charged. It felt like something we do every day -- just two people having a conversation and one gets po'd at the other. Then they talk about it. He questioned something I said and I asked didn't he ever have conflicting feelings....
It was blended. It wasn't polarized. He didn't get angry back. It was okay.
Whew. I feel numb. I felt safe. I am humbled.
