“marriage”

I stopped paying attention to my partner, leading to a comfortable but untruthful narrative about being wronged. This led to a loss of connection and eventual divorce.

What I wish I knew
"I should have prioritized being a partner over being a provider."
If I could tell you one thing
"Maintenance of love requires showing up, getting curious, and saying uncomfortable things before they become unforgivable."
