couple fight blame

  There’s a whole different set of clients that I often see quite often.  Not Jack & Diane from yesterday.   More Mortal Kombat.  God, I loved that game.  I think my computer game addiction began right back in the 90s with the Nintendo, Mortal Kombat and Sonic.  Not so much Atari – that was boring as […]

feeling alone in my relationship

The weather is pretty shitty today – here in Queensland.  Dark, rainy – just glum really. If a day could have an emotion – and I like to think they do – today is lonely. How do I know – well, I spent a hell of a lot of my childhood lonely.  Mostly because I […]

change your partner

I know, I know…you just want to help them.  Your motives are pure….(hmm we can talk about that another day).

But it will mess up your relationship.

Good relationships are horizontal.  One line right next to another.  No line higher than the other.

does he love me

  I remember sitting on the grass at Primary School, eating my sandwiches when my eyes were opened to the whole concept of love. I’m not even sure if I’d had a crush on anyone by then.  I did have some pretty cute cousins and Uncles whose attention made me blush – I know – […]

Rejection. Abandonment. Fear of rejection

  Don’t Leave Me This Way… I’m scared shitless of rejection. I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t. It paralyses me. Even when you guys unsubscribe – I have to catch myself. I’m going to guess that 90% of the people I chat with are making decisions from a place of fear.  Fear of […]

Incompatible, too different

Picture this.Very solemn court proceedings. Although it looks far more modern than I had pictured it. Hard wooden benches. Forced silence. People shuffling nervously in their chairs.  The air feels important.  I’m shaking.But – it’s not my first rodeo.I’m kinda used to the security checks when you come into the Family Court.  I’ve seen lots […]
