Are you or your partner compartmentalising your life and relationship....
Hope you're feeling better this Sunday morning than I am! Suffering a bit from my friend's birthday party last night ... well worth it hitting the dance floor. Will be perfect to curl up and watch the soap operas that are the X Factor [with the judges rowing] and Downton Abbey.
Going to cook a proper roastie - have a new herb crust recipe that's not supposed to come out stodgy on top of roast lamb or chicken... if it works I'll post the recipe because there's nothing like a lovely flavourful, crispy herb crust. But you know where to e-mail me if you've got a good recipe!
Have just posted a new article - on my homepage select "hot off the press" about ‘compartmentalising’ your relationships.
TODAY’S TIP: compartmentalising can cause trouble... like your new boyfriend never want you around when he's with his friends, your partner never wants to introduce you to her colleagues, etc.
But a balance can be struck - the best tip for starting point is to work out why you're being excluded from a certain area of your partner's life.
Is it a hurtful reason like you simply don't measure up, e.g., to their colleagues? Or is it because your partner just has an independent streak and that's an independent part of their life.
Once you have understanding about why they compartmentalise it gives you a starting point for the next step - what do you force the issue, except the way they do things, or find a compromise.
Was lovely to see my adopted gran yesty for lunch - a gang of us took her out to The Tunbridge Wells Bar & Grill - beautiful day and beuatiful vibe.
Happy Sunday, Pam x
