So just how much of a woman's life should be shared with a committed partner?I tend to want to share most of my life, what's going on in my day, my happiness, my sorrows, my pleasures and pains.....
I like to lean on my man for emotional comfort, but I M questioning this, recently.
My man is my best friend, why shouldn't I? I have always had more male friends than girlfriends so it is quite natural for me to share life with a man.
My boyfriend doesn't seem to appreciate this about me. Always joking even to the point of hurtful "jokes" which I seem to be the brunt of, he just doesn't recognize that I, while not being needy and certainly not clingy, would love to have his emotional support which I seldom get. (unless it's a man fixeruper issue, you know all black and white)
Things are complicated by a very long distance relationship as well.
I began to research and I discovered that alot of women feel the same I do, wanting to share but end up sharing with female friends....
Opinions, experiences?
Thanks ya'all
Terri
