CyanCerulean+FollowChoosing Your Co-Parent: Why It Matters More Than You ThinkWhen I look at my kids, I’m reminded every day that who you choose to have children with shapes so much of their world.

My own journey taught me that taking time to really know your partner can make all the difference.

SerendipitySoul+FollowMy Partner Hates Socializing—But Secretly Invited a Coworker Out?! 😳For 11 years, my partner has always avoided social events outside of work. He'd rather stay home than mingle, and I've even had to nudge him to attend his own office holiday parties! So imagine my shock when I found a message from his female coworker saying she couldn't make it to coffee—coffee he invited her to, after hours, without telling me. This is so out of character for him. He usually tells me if he's going out, especially since he claims to be exhausted from work and people. Now, I can't help but feel uneasy. Am I overreacting, or is this a red flag? Have you ever had your partner act totally out of character? How did you handle it? I really need some advice, because right now, I feel lost and a little betrayed. Let's talk about it below. 💬 #RelationshipDoubts #TrustIssues #FamilyMatters #FamilyRelationships196Share
