Boundaries

[One2Sly]

My partner has a part that I don't know well but lately this part has threatened to end the relationship pretty regularly. (Right now we're in a not speaking, she's thinking about it phase) So. I've been handling all of this pretty well I thought.. just trying to be there for her and support through a rough time.. except I made some bad choices (alcohol) and called attention to it. My calling attention to it was construed as extremely mean. Fortunately it was done via chat and i've been able to reread it several times and realize that I wasn't mean. Yesterday she told me that when she stops thinking or worrying about me, she feels so much better.. slept better, had a better morning etc. I'm having a hard time sitting on that one. I understand the need for patience and determination, but at what point should it be ok to say i'm struggling. Maybe the answer is never.
