Lookback: 2 years into the relationship

Cared for my ailing mother over my partner's expectations

My partner is upset that I took in my sick mother, making us live together

What I wish I knew
"She communicated her concerns and expectations earlier"
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate expectations clearly before making significant life changes"
