out I'm

14:55

just out of the sea so I can bar I can

14:57

barely move my face um

14:59

but um and I it feels yeah like much

15:02

stronger for that reason CU like you

15:04

break it down if you break something

15:06

down you builds up a bit stronger I

15:07

think I would say being honest with your

15:10

partner but I think it starts with being

15:12

honest with yourself um just about like

15:15

maybe what you want or how you're

15:17

feeling I think it's easy to um kind of

15:21

tell ourselves something that's not

15:23

necessarily true oh this will be fine

15:25

later on but really if you're just

15:26

really honest and and don't like play

15:29

any games it makes things so much easier

15:32

also to make a little surprises to your

15:34

loved ones some small things his

15:36

favorite thing to eat on breakfast or

15:37

organize a surprise birthday part or

15:39

some small things we'll we'll bring

15:41

something up even if it might cause a

15:43

bit of an argument we will bring

15:45

something up and then discuss it um and

15:47

that actually stops the arguments it

15:48

stop sort of getting resentful and

15:49

things like that and we sort of we just

15:51

discuss everything if something annoying

15:53

us the other ones done or we don't think

15:54

we should be doing we'll we'll the a

15:57

little bit that's the best way to do it

15:59

rather than just let it see and simmer

16:02

you can be two people who are incredibly

16:03

different or very similar but it doesn't

16:05

mean you're communicating the same way

16:07

and just because you might not have the

16:09

same communication
