Over the past year many of us have had our ups and downs relationship-wise, for the most part we have withstood all the tests. I am a firm believer in love, as I have told C, I have never fallen in love to fall out of love...I believe in love.
Don't get me wrong...I have a temper, and I bark more times than I should...something I am working on. Just the other day I was upset at C because I really wanted to get out of work on-time, but we didn't. This happens more times than I care to mention. A co-worker saw that I was "not at my happiest" and she said...just hug her when you see her...I did. It changed the whole course of our evening. In fact, the anger in me quelled as soon as I felt her touch. C and I have had issues than run deeper than that...but it is the love that keeps us together. We wouldn't have embraced that had it not been for therapy.

Awww...N2A...such a sweet story. I'm glad it changed the tone for your night for the better. Now hug C when you leave work today...no better way to start your weekend!
When C and I aren't feeling as connected/in-tune with each other, we try to increase the hugs/little touches/kind words. It sometimes needs to be consciously done in order to reaffirm the connection. Physical and emotional connection are so tied together for me. When I have physical connection it helps with the emotional part, but for C it's the other way around. So having it be a habit is helpful!
