Do you tell your SO
when you've had a bad day? I typically don't and won't tonight after a rare bad day today.

I haven't had an SO in a long time but when I did, I only told her if I felt sure that my behavior was being adversely affected by the day.

Depends on the issues and level of badness.
Sometimes yes. Usually if it was just a stressful day, sure. Off itt was a truly bad day relayed to work, probably not. |

To answer your question Shaun,,, of course. I tell her, she tells me. I help her with her stress load and provide suggestions,, she does the same for me. We each have different perspectives and in using that method, we manage everything together which helps smooth out those peaks. It also keeps us from making rash assumptions about the sources of tensions.. It’s worked for us for 35 plus.

No.
Because she's the sort to kick the dog while he's down. |

I try not to, because instead of listening to my venting, she gives uninformed suggestions. Sometimes, you just want to ***** and not discuss alternatives, etc.

I rarely have bad days as I'm pretty grounded but if i do I usually get over it by the time I would see her to tell her. I might tell her what happened, but its over and done very quickly.

My S.O. can also tell if I haven't exercised that day.

No. She takes things more to heart than I do. The bad day will roll off me and will still be weighing on her.

Yes. She can tell anyway. It's venting.

Yes, but just as a statement of facts and then move on so as not to be a bummer and ruin her day too.

My wife and I have been married 46 years and counting . Open discussion and communication are part of the reason we are still together . We are partners ............... there is no reason not to discuss a bad day .
