Trial and error is often seen as failure in relationships; as if people should know how to have it together when getting together. But the flexed muscles take time, energy, and a lot of grace for yourself and your partner(s). Going to therapy is not dropping out of the “sport” or an admittance of failure in skills.

We learn, love, and lose in relationship to one another. Sounds beautiful, right? But, humans are like tectonic plates; rigid with build up of experiences and survival techniques.
