A Good Man Will Never Make You Feel Crazy
He confesses he does the same
Rather than make me feel embarrassed for confessing those career insecurities (and mentioning this one female peer to whom I often compare myself), my partner says he goes through the same things. He shares with me similar thoughts or fears he’s had about his career recently. It’s not a form of commiserating, but rather just showing me that it happens to everyone. He doesn’t look down on me for those feelings, nor does he just tell me to cut it out.
