Not great. Things have been tense between me and my partner for a while, mostly because of my own selfishness. But they're my best friend, my only close friend. But I keep doing things that push them away. I can't help but feel like they've started to fall out of love with me.

They give the best advice. Their wisdom has helped me so profoundly in so many other areas of my life, but when it has to do with them I have no one. My Therapist is pretty useless: the most I ever get out of them is a worksheet or similar Strangers on the Internet are always willing to listen, and offer advice, but that only goes so far.

I don't think I have many good days to look forward to in the near future.
