Hiya,
In a post a while back, someone said that every time they rowed with their DP they would catastrophise it and think it would be their last, and that this was a result of having a passive-aggressive mother... They didn't explain more but it really got me thinking.
I do this, I worry to death about rows or disagreements with thoughts like "he's had enough now and will dump me" etc. On Friday night I had a tiff with DP, he didn't want to talk about it because 'it'll pass and things will be fine', me on the other hand spent the whole night agonising that the the end was nigh.
Of course it wasn't and woke up the next day, things were fine, as was the rest of the weekend. Talking about it with him he said just cos you row with someone doesn't mean you don't like them or don't want to be with them. But I seem to have difficulty making myself believe this.
I know I'm not explaining myself very well but does anyone else have difficulty with this issue?
