Talking things through

[cjsmith]

I hate when I don't know how to bring up something that bothers me without hurting the other person... especially when it's not his fault, when it's nobody's fault.

I hate when there isn't a good obvious easy solution for something that bothers me.

I like that I try to bring it up anyway.

I like that I try to find solutions anyway.

I hope I'll get better at both of these.

talk it over with a friend and rehearse so it's easier?

Yeah, perhaps I should do more of that.

The worst ones happen when I think there won't be a problem. A little extra caution might not be a bad idea.
