Don't Be Meredith Grey

Have I talked about communication on here before? I don’t remember, and I’m too lazy to look it up.

Anyway, communication is key. We all know that saying. But MY GOD have I learned how true it is. I mean, just watch a few episodes of Grey’s Anatomy, 99 per cent of the problems there were created by poor communication.

My own relationship, too, has taught me its importance. Luckily, my partner and I are both pretty good at communicating by default, me because I’m a big talker, and him because he knows the value of it. We have been able to avoid so many fights simply because we told each other how we felt, and resolved possible misunderstandings. We’ve had veeery different upbringings, and so our understanding of the world, of relationships and other core beliefs differ greatly sometimes. So of course, there’s been moments where one of us was a bit…perplexed, to say the least, by something the other one thought to be completely regular, but by saying exactly that out loud, nothing bad ever came from those situations.

I’m sure I will talk more about this topic in the future.

I love communication.

Peace out,
