We did a Secret Santa again at work and for the SECOND YEAR IN A ROW, I received NOTHING.

I’m so sad.

Much deserved vacation.

Y'all what am I going to do if i marry this guy I met on tinder? I’ll tell you what I’m gonna do. I’m gonna be happy forever and loved deeply and truly. The first thing we ever talked about was sandwiches, so…

update (3 years later): we’re getting married.

“When your parter confides in you about a problem they’ve faced, and your first response is to try to fix it, what this says to your partner is not that you care enough to help, but that you don’t believe they’re capable of figuring out a solution by themselves. This is one of the most common ways to miss your partner because you bypassed empathy when that’s the only thing they were looking for. When your partner confides in you, resist problem solving. If they want solutions, they’ll ask for your input, but what they most likely want is connection, which looks like asking questions, empathizing, and never siding with the enemy. All they want is to be heard, to know they’re not alone, and to feel that you’re on their side.”

I think this is a great resource for anybody who wishes to figure out their Enneagram type or learn more about their type combined with the influence of the instinctual variants upon it.

Enjoy!
