My partner and I have been fighting and arguing constantly, but it's good, we're making progress. It's... cleansing, I guess, and even though it's frustrating, it feels right. It feels like muscles burning after a strenuous workout -- it's a good kind of ache, with satisfaction in it. We're breaking down all these walls that built themselves out of neglect and indifference. And for the first time, I know that he's putting full effort in. I feel like we're working together. I still can't really believe it -- I think I really expected him to shrug and say bye, not fight to create a healthy relationship. He's truly an amazing person. ♥
