My tank is empty…and it may have a hole
Last night my hubby and I went to see a counselor together. IT’S ABOUT TIME! Anyways…she brought up the love languages and said it was important for us to learn our own and each other’s love languages. Letting us know that when our “tank is empty” we need the other to help fill it. We couldn’t have it any other way, but my hubby and I don’t share the same languages. AH-HA! That is why it is so hard sometimes. We each have to work supper hard to fill the others “tank”. BUT my hubby didn’t realize if he was filling my tank then why was it not getting full. Well, I may have a hole in it OR that it is was just way more empty then he thought. BOY! No one every told you that love and marriage were a different language nor so hard. It wouldn’t make a difference, I would still be “here” today in my marriage, but damn…it should be a requirement to take marriage classes or something before you can get married! Easier to learn all this stuff before the shit hits the fan, yeah know. Anyhoo…I love my husband and through it all I do want to be with him.

Sometimes it just takes time to figure it all out. I figured out after 15 years that I was married to the wrong man. Hopefully you have a different ending. Good luck with the counseling.

*Cheers & applause! Cheers & applause!*
So happy you both are beginning this journey to understanding each other after such a rough week.
Yeah…it’s difficult enough that men and women are SO different…then with all of what you are dealing with as an individual…I mean, sheesh…I give you both tons of credit for hanging in there!!!!
