when you feel at ease enough with the other person, so you could let loose, you could show vulnerability, be flawed, be imperfect
… it's comforting to be able to, just be - as much as possible, reasonably so, sufficiently.
And meanwhile,
you still love and respect the other person so much you don't overburden them. You seek help where they could give.
… it's always two ways, we do to other what we'd like done to us. We respect others so we respect ourselves; we expect to be respected by the counterparts. Treated with reasonability and kindness too, and love.
And if you need more than one person source of support, you spread your request and seeking.
… so it's sustainable to us all.
Takes a village. Takes a community.
