  "If I'm arguing, I care.  If I'm silent I'm done". 


This couldn't be further from the truth.  Anyone who knows me, knows when I go silent there is a problem.  It simply means I'm done and then cut the relationship (friendship, lover, coworker, family whatever it is).  I'm very good at giving chances but push me enough and I eventually break.  When I argue and continue to share it's because I care.  

I am aware that this is not a healthy way of handling things, I am trying to work on this.  I feel that the above statement will continue to hold true.  At the same time I hope to be able to communicate and be more open to sharing my feelings vs shutting down.  

How do you choose to respond when someone has pushed you too far?

A man who loved deeply, truly, wholeheartedly before. Instead of feeling intimidated by the depth of his past, I found myself moved by it. The way he speaks of love, the way he honors what he once had, only makes me feel closer to him. It shows the kind of heart he...
