Grateful for the practice of boundaries via /r/gratitude

Instead of speaking freely with my SO, I am only offering information when requested. This way I am not disappointed by having the myriad amounts of information I would have offered in the past be mostly ignored or forgotten.

It also does not ask my SO to be other than what he is. If he asks, he will be perhaps interested and might remember.

I feel a myriad of challenging emotions. Overriding them is a sense of appropriateness and calm.
