We long to know that our partner sees us, gets us, and cherishes us for who we are. When this need is met, it lays the groundwork for deep intimacy, trust, and connection. And the key to meeting this need? You guessed it: healthy communication.

5 Signs You’re Dealing With an Emotionally Immature Person
Have you ever interacted with someone and felt like you were talking to a child trapped in an adult’s body? Like no matter how old they were, they just didn’t seem to have the emotional intelligence and maturity to handle life’s challenges? Maybe it was a friend, a co-worker, or heaven forbid – a romantic partner.
Dealing with emotionally stunted people is an exhausting and baffling experience. Their behaviors and reactions seem irrational and misaligned with their chronological age.

“Caught in lifestyle creep, how to get out?”
First of all, I completely understand that my problems are first world problems and I’m VERY lucky to be where I’m at financially. Even so, I have very poor money management skills and could really use some advice. Its embarrassing. Thanks in advance for the help.
Me: 37, gross $13k-$15k/mo, 25% w2, 75% self employed. Main monthly expenses are rent: $1300 Child support: $800 Car: $350, along with regular utilities, subscriptions etc. Credit score: terrible. I’ve run the numbers and there is absolutely no good reason for me to essentially be living paycheck to paycheck and having around $5k of debt killing my credit score. I have a small 401k and about $1k in a savings account, but that’s it. Yes, self employment taxes shaves off a fair amount each month, but I’m lucky enough to get health insurance through my W2 job that helps balance things.
