Title: Where to start...
Post by: ellableu on May 19, 2023, 07:15:00 PM
I've edited this post twice now...  I don't believe in being a victim.  I want to learn tools to navigate the situation and be empowered in it.

My partner has been gone for 3 mos. now and has basically, stopped sharing completely.  She is/was my best friend.  In a couple weeks, we will find ourselves going on a 16-hour road trip.

Here's the question:  How do I have conversations with her that are authentic, without telling her what I think about what's she's done and how it's been handled while not "poking the bear," all the while establish healthy boundaries?
