I’ve gone over this in my head so many times. Trying to find a way to say it that doesn’t turn into something else. That doesn’t sound like I’m blaming you.

Or overthinking. Or making something out of nothing. And that’s the problem. Because before I even say anything…I’m already trying to make sure it lands right. I’m already adjusting it. Softening it. Rewording it. Taking parts out and even then… I still hesitate.

Because I don’t know how it’s going to be taken and I don’t want it to turn into something bigger…so I leave it…….Again…..And I don’t think you realise how often that happens.

How many things don’t get said not because they don’t matter… but because I don’t know how to say them without it becoming something else.
