Times We Want Our Partners To Sympathize With Us – Not Save Us

When you’re tired
We’re never too old to get grumpy/sleepy like we did as toddlers. Sometimes, you’re just absolutely beat. You haven’t been sleeping enough. You could melt onto the floor. You tell your partner this – that you haven’t been sleeping well. And he, of course, just begins looking up links for blackout curtains and sound machines to help you sleep. He tells you that you need to stop drinking coffee in the afternoon and that you really shouldn’t watch that scary show you like before bedtime. He asks if you exercise enough during the day to tire yourself out. What a fool. You just want him to hold you. You already ordered melatonin and a sound machine.
