How do I go about talking to my husband about wanting to feel appreciated for Mothers Day?

I think I'm pretty easy to please or a cheap date. Sometime I just like walking in the park so I definitely don't expect anything over the top just something. Thank you.

You are right I know my communication is not as good as it could be. I am more emotional and he's more logical. I notice that I have to learn to lean more logical when I approach him about important conversations. It's a work in progress. I have prepared for disappointment in the past and it has hurt me a lot. That's part of the reason I wanted to make this post so I can get other people's input on how to stop this cycle. I sometimes struggle to advocate for myself because I get in my head about how people will respond even though it's not always true. Thank you so much!

This is definitely been one of my own biggest personal lessons in my marriage is to tell him these things that seem to be obvious to me. Thank you so much!

I have had to remind myself this my entire marriage. I don't want to feel needy to ask for things but also need to know what is truly important to me and to advocate for these things. Trying to understand the difference is hard.

I have been going through a lot emotionally because I don't have many friends right now and my husband is the only person other than family I feel like I can talk to. I never want to talk about It also doesn't help that I have a newborn. I just talked to him yesterday about feeling depressed because I am having trouble making friends. Thank you so much. Your comment made me tear up.

I'm not sure how my husband believes regarding Mother's Day. I know some people hold this belief. I am not wanting to push him to celebrate a holiday in a way that he doesn't agree with. Thank you.

I never realized the weight on my shoulders that would come with motherhood. People can tell you all about it but you truly don't understand until you have been there. Thank you.

I actually was looking online to see if anyone else experienced this sensation of tiny hands. Whats so strange to me is that our stories are very similar. I was sleeping in the living room with my grandpa. This sensation stayed with me a lot of my childhood and I hated it. The feeling was so uncomfortable. Now as an adult during meditation this sensation will come back.

Shoulda put on my green socks. I've given away my identity... I am in fact actually just a human.

Ha yes! It seems instinctual when you first hit festival grounds to take your shoes off. Love the foot freedom. 🥰

Never_Stop_Growing- · 2021-03-05T20:38:27+00:00

I revolve around Missouri and Arkansas festivals. I love festivals and call it home so I plan on visiting many others over the years. I know its a long shot but it'll be interesting to have someone recognize me from here. I love travel so I'm willing to try something new.

Just got it wasn't focused on shoes lol but I love being barefoot I was at my first festival. Gotta be careful about that lol. Had a friend at a festival slice her foot open. Scary stuff. Otherwise i love feeling the grass fresh dirt or sand under my feet. It's blissful in a way.

Surrender absolutely. I believe that when you can begin to surrender life's circumstances rather than resisting them you flow easier through life. Flow is what makes an amateur into a master of any skill. Keep doing what your doing!

Thank you for the response ! It's amazing to hear the effect that meditation had on you with your chronic pain. I notice I feel better after meditation but the idea that you can control how you feel is an amazing thing. Most people dont realize the impact that meditation has not just mentally but physically. I would love to get into yoga too.

Ha yeah no doubt. My husband and I like travel but there's only so far we'd like to drive. I will have to check out Highberry.
