You know how you do something wrong….
Maybe not even wrong, but something your significant other isn’t happy about?
You talk about it….
You don’t apologize because you don’t feel wrong…
You feel you just see the situation differently than they do….
But you do acknowledge their feelings and say you will try to get better
You talk about it several more times
No problem, you’re a communicator…..
However many times it takes to make you feel better, babe.
Until suddenly it becomes the only thing you ever talk about
Even when youre not talking about it, it somehow slides into the conversation
A comment…
A glare…..
Passive-aggression loud as the day is long
And one day
A question about toilet paper turns into another one of those songs
You on the refrain: “Ok, just let it go already!” for the 87th time
Then you find your mouth closing
Your eyes staring off at a wall
And its all you can do not to cry because you know at that very moment….
Its over.
You just cant do it anymore.

Sound familiar? Yeah. I’ve been here before……. Just never with my job. That being said….

I need a new one.
