You’re not used to having someone to lean on

Having people to lean on—like to really just unload on—when I’m feeling overwhelmed by life is a new thing to me. I remember, there were a few times I was going through something tough, and my boyfriend’s mom called and asked, “Why didn’t you tell me? That’s what family is here for.” It hadn’t crossed my mind that anyone else would want to take on my stuff.
