Caring Before Sharing.

– “I want healthy relations.”
– “Have healthy communication.”
– “How do I manage that?”
– “How do we communicate?”
– “We speak. We use words.”
– “And what do we convey in words?”
– “Our thoughts.”
– “That’s all?”
– “Feelings too.”
– “So is it emotional space we share?”
– “Sure we do.”
– “Or is it our angle that we share?”
– “Yes, that too. Our approach.”
– “Stay aware, there.”
– “In what way?”
– “Your approaches may differ.”
– “I’m entitled to my opinions.”
– “Is that the purpose of relation?”
– “What purpose?”
– “Establishment of entitlement to differences?”
– “Do I not have that right?”
– “Are you sure you have that right?”
– “Of course I am.”
– “Then why do you need it acknowledged?”
– “No… I… I don’t… I mean…”
– “Do you know why relations fail?”
– “Umm…”
– “People begin with sharing emotional spaces.”
– “And then?”
– “They shift to forcing emotional spaces.”
– “You mean people force their opinions?”
– “About what the other person should feel.”
– “How do they do that?”
– “I notice you’re still single.”
– “Yes.”
– “Hahaha.”
– “Excuse me? Why do you laugh?”
– “Why does it hurt you?”
– “I have my reasons I’m single.”
– “Exactly; and I should’ve known.”
– “Yes.”
– “I chose not to.”
– “Yes.”
– “For I thought it was funny.”
– “Yes. That was your emotional space.”
– “And I dumped it on you.”
– “Without checking if I wanted it.”
– “Exactly; and that’s not sharing. Got it?”
– “Oh… So it’s about caring before sharing…”
– “Perfect. Empathize first, before you voice out. And you’ll be gold.”
