can anyone give me any tips on how tips on how to verbalise what I need and want from my relationship without feeling like I am being
a) controlling
b) demanding
c) needy
....and probably other things i can't think of right now.
I tend to get all caught up with feeling confused about how to state it effectively without feeling like I might be overreacting. so I keep quiet, or drop crap hints which don't work, making me feel worse, until I explode and it all comes out wrong and then I end up feeling like I'm ruining our relationship :(
any advice greatly appreciated, thanks
