DITTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(to the Happy Birthday song)
I'm mental too about June/July birthdays, to June/July in general. I'm doing a database and I don't know how many times I've screwed up the two months, it drives me nuts. That and April and March. Not the names, obviously, but the numbers (03, 04) I did, like, 4 pages where March was the fourth month before realizing that no, it's not. You'd think I'd be able to remember these things, especially with an April birhday, but I'm just stupid that way.
Justin and I... seriously, the biggest reason we fight is because we speak two entirely different languages. It sounds stupid, all Men are from Mars, but it's true. I really have to stop and think and process what he's saying to hear what's behind it because otherwise something that might be really nice sounds horrible. It sucks. You're upset, your brain does not want to stop. and think. and process. It's just hurt and hurt more by what he says and... it goes down hill from there. So we're learning.
You sort of got it right, which is a lot more than I would've expected given the horrendous explanation I gave. It is a lot about resolving it so the same problem doesn't come back to haunt you, but it's also... how to say this... You know how people tell you to drop it? You'll be fighting and they'll be like, Just let it go, walk away. I can't do that. If I do that it only gets worse because the argument doesn't stop. It keeps going in my head and without the other person it just gets worse and worse. You know how it is, you think about something too much, you twist it and blow it out of proportion. You're upset and you dwell on it and the anger just builds on itself, more and more and more. That's my biggest thing. It's so destructive, it makes me so angry and depressed... so I fight. *laughes* I fight so I can be happy! *rolls eyes* I'm a special bunny.
