I Don’t Want You To Be Nice: I Want You To Be Real
Author: siggyIf I am upset I want you to react to that. Don’t be defensive or gloss over my mood. And it goes your way too: If I am not acting right, you need to gently tell me I am not behaving properly toward you.
I do not want to get out of control. I do not want to reach the point of no return. Please tell me before that happens. You can tell me quietly. I don’t want the silent treatment from you.
I always want you to be real. No phony niceness. You can cut me off before I go out of control. It says in Proverbs an apt answer can defray anger. That is a paraphrase. Nevertheless, always be real with me.
It can prevent me from going out of control. I really do not like being out of control. Always be real with me. Gentle but real.
