Yes, even in happy relationships there is so much extraneous drama injected into ordinary situations.
I’ve had so many kind gesture towards my partner rejected and shoved back in my face. It’s just not worth it anymore.
When I buy myself a coffee or flowers, I don’t scream at myself for getting the wrong coffee/flowers, or start ranting how I don’t do this often enough, or that I’m trying to manipulate them… etc etc.
I just get to enjoy the coffee or the flowers and be at peace and think how pleasant it is. God forbid something just be enjoyable instead of weaponized.
