…ationship is one that thrives on distance and closeness. It’s not one to the exclusion of the other. It’s the privilege of coming together and, at the same time, retaining individual freedom. We should force no one to lose themselves in the relationship, instead, that union ought to be a place where both partners build up, share, and provide support for one another, and to bring out the best of two distinct individuals. I would love for my partner to honor my space, and I’ll do the same for him. There is no pressure to reveal anything if he is not ready.
