How do I know if my partner truly loves me for who I am?
I love them. I'm also tired in a way that sleep doesn't touch. I don't even have a clean name for it. I just know it keeps running the day. I'm not looking for a villain. I am looking for whether this can actually change. I keep finding essays that sound right and still don't change Tuesday morning. Curious how other people live with this without turning it into their whole personality.

Humans are ultimately self-interested. The question is whether their interest aligns with your flourishing — or just their comfort.

If you're the only one reading the books and starting the talks, that's data too.

Did you figure that out on your own or with someone helping you?
