Same thing.

And I can't believe this.
And you remember that.
And you never did anything about this.
And you basically don't allow for the relationship to heal, to repair.
There are ruptures.
The art of a relationship is repair.
Ruptures is a given.
That's obvious.
But to repair the actual ability to give yourself the opportunity to be with somebody who says, I'm changing.
I'm doing something different.
And to receive that, to really receive that, that's the vulnerability.
Being angry and being stuck and being stubborn and holding the grudge.

It pretends to protect you, but it's bullshit.
